A content reproduction apparatus comprising:
- a receiving module configured to communicate with a server via a network and receive from the server a channel including a plurality of contents arranged to be distributable along a time base;
- a reproduction module configured to selectively reproduce the contents included in the channel received by the receiving module;
- and
- a control module configured to show, as reproduction of a final content on the time base in the channel is completed by the reproduction module, that reproduction of the final content is completed,
- wherein the reproduction module is configured to further reproduce another content included in the channel after it is shown that reproduction of the final content is completed.
A content reproduction apparatus comprising:
- a communication module configured to be connected with a server via a network;
- and
- a browser module configured to request, via the communication module, the server to acquire a content, and reproduce the content acquired from the server,
- wherein the browser module comprises:
- a processing module configured to request the server to acquire a channel including a plurality of contents arranged to be distributable along a time base, and receive the requested channel from the server;
- a processing module configured to request the server to acquire a content selected based on external operation among the plurality of contents included in the received channel, and acquire the requested content from the server and reproduce the content;
- and
- a processing module configured to receive information showing that reproduction of a final content on the time base in the channel is completed, and show that reproduction of the final content on the time base in the channel is completed, and
- the browser module is configured to further reproduce another content included in the channel after it is shown that reproduction of the final content is completed.
A method of reproducing a content, comprising:
- communicating with a server via a network and receiving from the server a channel including a plurality of contents arranged to be distributable along a time base;
- selectively reproducing the contents included in the received channel;
- showing, as reproduction of a final content on the time base in the channel is completed, that reproduction of the final content is completed;
- and
- after it is shown that reproduction of the final content on the time base is completed, further reproducing another content included in the channel.
