ABSTRACT:
A separability control device formed by connecting plural node devices in a tree-like shape while forming plural hierarchy levels placing a delivery device at a top to enable content data from the delivery device to be sequentially transferred from the node device on an upper hierarchy level to the node device on an lower hierarchy level, including:a simultaneous separation process upper limit number determination means for determining a simultaneous separation process upper limit number being an upper limit number of the node devices capable of separating simultaneously based on the number of the participating node devices;a separation request information receiving means; anda separation permission notification means for sending a separation permission notification of permitting the node device being a separation request information sending source when the number of the node devices currently under the separation process does not reach the simultaneous separation process upper limit number.
