Abstract
An information management device and method, an information processing device and method, a recording medium, and a program that allow the provision of optimum content to each individual user are provided. In a Pochara service server 9, a matching is executed between the feature information of music selection Pochara and the feature information of the user of a personal computer 22 updated in response to the replies to questions asked by a music selection Pochara, thereby selecting a music selection Pochara which is optimum to the feelings of the user of the personal computer 22 at that time. On the personal computer 22, the image of the selected music selection Pochara is displayed and music content is selected by this music selection Pochara. The present invention is applicable to various kinds of devices such as personal computers that have a communication capability and a display capability.
