Abstract
An information delivery system includes an information delivery device, an information communicating means, and an information storage and playback device. The information storage and playback device stores partial information of delivery information beforehand, reproduces one of the stored partial information, and notifies the information delivery device of the partial information chosen to be reproduced. While the information storage and playback device is reproducing the partial information of the delivery information, the information delivery device transmits remaining information of the delivery information, which is chosen to be reproduced by the information storage and playback device, to the information storage and playback device. The information storage and playback device chooses the partial information to reproduce, stores the remaining information of the delivery information transmitted from the information delivery device, and reproduces the stored remaining information of the delivery information just as the reproduction of the partial information is finished. Therefore, it is possible to deliver information smoothly without a pause and any delay.
