ABSTRACT:
A communication system is configured to include at least one information-processing device, at least one information-providing server and a management server. The management server manages whether contents to be transmitted to the information-processing device, which has been registered with the information-providing server, are available in the information-providing server. The information-processing device requests the management server to check availability of specified contents at intervals of a transmission period predetermined for each of the specified contents and receives a check result therefrom. If a plurality of transmission services is to be started, the information-processing device requests the management server to check availability of the contents corresponding to the plurality of transmission services at intervals of a single transmission period which is determined based on the transmission periods predetermined for the contents corresponding to respective ones of the plurality of transmission services.
