The license server executes, on a charging and settlement server, the processing necessary for the charging and settlement of the fee of the purchased album content. In response, the charging and settlement server executes the charging and settlement processing. The subject of charging is not only the first item of content, but also all items of content packaged as album content. Subsequently, all items of content in the album are downloaded.
