Abstract
A meta data set correlated with position information is acquired from a server via a communication interface unit (202) or a broadcast interface unit (201). A current position information acquisition unit (208) acquires the current position information and a content processing unit (203) outputs a content list matched with the search condition including the current position information from the meta data set. When a display list is generated according to the content list, a content display control unit (204) compares the content list to the display list. When they coincide, the meta data generates a display list without changing the display method and displays the search result on a browser unit (205) according to the display list generated by the content display control unit (204).
