First Claim
1. An information processing device, comprising:
- an obtaining unit configured to obtain channel data, the channel data including;
(i) a plurality of content-corresponding images, each of the content-corresponding images corresponding to one of a plurality of respective content items, and (ii) location data indicating a plurality of locations on a packet switched network where respective obtain-target data for each of the respective content items are located, where the respective content-corresponding images are correlated to certain of the location data, where the obtain-target data for at least one of the content items includes a respective, and different, obtain target data located at each of a number of different locations among the plurality of locations, and where the channel data are updated based whether one or more of the respective content items are selected by a user of the information processing device;
a screen image output unit configured to output a screen image showing a picture in which a plurality of the respective content-corresponding images are simultaneously placed; and
a processing executing unit configured to execute a processing that corresponds to a user-selected one of the content-corresponding images and is based on the channel data, such that the processing varies based on whether the content item corresponding to the selected content-corresponding image has been previously selected by the user, the processing including obtaining certain of the obtain-target data at one or more of the locations specified in the location data of the channel data correlated to the selected content-corresponding image, such that the one or more locations are external to the information processing device on the packet switched network and are dependent on whether the content item corresponding to the selected content-corresponding image has been previously selected by the user, and outputting the obtained obtain-target data.

Abstract
To provide an information processing device, an information processing method, an information storage medium, and a program capable of providing information and executing a processing according to a situation in which content is used. A channel data obtaining unit obtains content-corresponding images corresponding to a plurality of respective contents. An index screen image producing and outputting unit outputs a screen image showing a picture in which the respective content-corresponding images are placed according to a rule determined based on data that is updated upon use of the respective contents. An index-object-related processing executing unit executes, upon receipt of selection of the content-corresponding image, a processing that corresponds to a content-corresponding image selected and is based on data that is updated upon use of a content corresponding to the content-corresponding image.
