ABSTRACT:
A device is provided for sending listings of broadcast programs to a plurality of terminal devices connected via a network so that the plurality of terminal devices display the listings of broadcast programs on display screens. The device includes a program-management unit for keeping information about broadcast programs of a plurality of broadcast stations in a random-list format, a generation unit for extracting information from the program-management unit with respect to broadcast programs of a date and time indicated by one of the terminal devices, and for editing extracted information to generate a listing of broadcast programs, and an addition unit for attaching at least one of a date change button, a time change button, and a search button to the listing of broadcast programs. The date change button and the time change button are used for changing a date and a time slot of a displayed listing of broadcast programs, respectively. The search button is used for displaying a listing of searched broadcast programs. A sending unit sends the listing of broadcast programs including at least one of the date change button, the time change button, and the search button to one of the terminal devices.
