A content delivery method enabling a communication terminal to acquire a content held by a passing communication terminal with a lightened communication load between the communication terminals is provided as follows in the present invention. The content delivery method according to the present invention includes storing a content and a content holder list listing a content holder that holds the content, in a mutually associated manner, receiving an external signal, detecting a neighboring communication terminal, and outputting a terminal identifier of the neighboring communication terminal included in the external signal. The method further includes searching the content holder list in accordance with the terminal identifier, determining a content related to an unsearched content holder list as an unheld content, and outputting the unheld content as a transmitted content, with the terminal identifier as a destination terminal identifier. The method further includes creating, in accordance with the determination result, a content message including the transmitted content and the destination terminal identifier, with a local terminal identifier as a transmission terminal identifier, or a content list message including a content list of the transmitted content and the destination terminal identifier, with the local terminal identifier as a transmission terminal identifier, and transmitting the created message as a content information message to the neighboring communication terminal.
A communication terminal comprising:
A content delivery method comprising:
A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium recording a communication terminal control program causing a computer of a communication terminal including a content DB that stores a content and a content holder list listing a content holder that holds the content, in a mutually associated manner, to operate as:
