Information processing apparatus and information processing method, and program storing medium for distinguishing suffixes appended to contents data

An information processing method for an information processing apparatus, connected via a network with another information processing apparatus for distributing contents, said method comprising:

• an input step for receiving input of information from said other information processing apparatus;
• a display step for displaying a Web page input by the processing in said input step;
• an output step for outputting, to said other information processing apparatus, signals corresponding to operation performed by a user with regard to said Web page displayed by the processing in said display step;
• a distinguishing step for distinguishing suffixes appended to contents data input by the processing in said input step;
• a playing step for playing said contents data when a suffix of said contents data is distinguished to be a first suffix by the processing in said distinguishing step;
• and
• a saving step for saving said contents data and information relating to said contents data, when that a suffix of said contents data is distinguished to be a second suffix by the processing in said distinguishing step.
