There is provided a method by which, when a broadcast receiving device downloads and stores a content with an expiration time from a communication line etc, and a user reproduces the content, an electronic clock for judging the validity of the expiration time is set to a correct time and whether to reproduce the content or not is properly judged by using the correct time. In the method, the user is not allowed to set the electronic clock inside the broadcast receiving device, the clock is not set when the receiving device is started up, and time information is acquired from a broadcast wave or a communication line. If the time information is successfully acquired, the electronic clock is set by the acquired time information and then is used for judging the expiration time for use of the content on the assumption that the clock has been set correctly.
