Abstract
The present invention relates to an information processing device which can enhance using efficiency of commercial pictures. In a service server 3, meta-data added with a CM mark necessary to extract commercial pictures (CM) which are broadcasted while contained in a content are generated, and registered in a meta-data data base 302. The meta-data are transmitted to a reception terminal 2, and registered in a meta-data data base 204. When receiving a broadcast content, the reception terminal 2 extracts a content added with CM mark as CM, and registered into a CM data base 202 on the basis of meta-data registered in the meta-data data base 204. The present invention is applicable to a server for distributing commercial pictures.
