Description

  The present invention relates to a content providing system that provides content such as music, video, and virtual community to a computer connected to a network such as the Internet.

  Conventionally, many music and video distribution systems for distributing various music and video contents to a personal computer of a client terminal via a network and streaming them on the personal computer have been proposed.

  However, the conventional content providing system cannot be enjoyed unless the dedicated application is executed on the user terminal or the dedicated web page of the content provider is accessed. .

  Therefore, in recent years, tag content has been implemented in web pages by embedding access information to the server that provides the content with tags in HTML data that constructs web pages such as blogs and personal home pages. There is also provided a content providing system that provides content on a terminal that accesses the Internet.

  In a user terminal that accesses a web page in which tag content of such tag format is implemented, the browser of the user terminal analyzes the HTML data, so that the data constituting the web page is transmitted from the web page providing server to the user terminal. By transmitting and analyzing the content tag in the HTML data, the user terminal accesses the content server, and the content is distributed from the content server to the user terminal. Therefore, on the user terminal, the content is displayed on the display in a state where the content is mounted in the web page.

  Therefore, by using such tag content, there is an advantage that various contents provided by the content provider can be mounted on his / her web page without preparing the content by himself / herself. There is an advantage that content can be provided to many users.

For example, Patent Literature 1 below discloses a virtual community system that implements a tag-type virtual community in a personal web page.
Japanese Patent No. 3617651

  By the way, the content tag inserted in the HTML of the web page includes the address information of the content server, etc., but the person who viewed the web page can easily make the HTML source easily by using the browser function. Can see. Therefore, if the content tag inserted in a certain site is copied into the HTML data of another site, the same content may be provided in the other site. This problem is a big problem for service providers who provide music contents while managing copyright.

  The present invention has been made to solve such a problem. In providing tag content, the tag content can be prevented from being illegally used, and the content providing server can manage the content providing destination. An object is to provide a content providing system.

  In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, a content providing system according to the present invention is a content providing system that includes a content providing server, a user terminal, and a web server connected via a network, and implements tag content in a web page. The content providing server includes a program database that stores a program for providing content, a URL management database that stores a URL of a web page on which the tag content is mounted in association with a user identifier, and the URL management Control means for distributing tag content only to a user terminal that has accessed a web page with a URL stored in a database, and the web server is a content tag for implementing the tag content in the web page So Storage means for storing HTML data in which a content tag including address information of the content providing server is inserted, and when the user terminal accesses a web page on which the tag content is mounted, Control means for analyzing a tag for content and mounting the tag content in a web page by accessing the content providing server is provided.

  A content providing method according to the present invention is a content providing method for providing tag content in a web page to a user terminal connected to a content providing server via a network, wherein the content providing server includes: An authentication address recording step of recording address information of a web page in which a content tag is inserted and authenticated by a legitimate user in the storage means as authentication address information; An address information acquisition step of acquiring address information of the web page from a user terminal that has accessed the content providing server by accessing the web page in which the tag is inserted and analyzing the content tag, and providing the content On the server, A check step for checking whether the address information acquired in the address information acquisition step is address information recorded as authentication address information in the storage means; and in the content providing server, in the check step, A distribution step of distributing tag content to the user terminal when the address information acquired in the address information acquisition step is recognized as authentication address information.

  A content providing program according to the present invention is a content providing program for causing a computer connected to a user terminal via a network to provide tag content in a web page to the user terminal. An authentication address recording step for recording address information of a web page that has been inserted by a tag and that has been authenticated by a legitimate user in the storage means as authentication address information, and a web page in which the content tag has been inserted The address information acquisition step of acquiring address information of the web page from the user terminal that has accessed and analyzed the content tag and accessed the content providing server, and the address information acquired in the address information acquisition step are , The storage means A check step for checking whether or not the address information is recorded as authentication address information, and when the address information acquired in the address information acquisition step is recognized as authentication address information in the check step. And causing the computer to execute a distribution step of distributing tag content to the user terminal.

  According to the content providing system of the present invention, the address information of the web page providing the tag content can be recognized on the content providing server side, so that the content is provided only to the web page authenticated by the authorized user. Can do.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the present embodiment, a case where music is provided as content will be described as an example.

  FIG. 1 is a diagram showing a schematic configuration of a content providing system 1 according to the present embodiment. As shown in the figure, the content providing system 1 includes a content providing server 10 that stores various data for providing content, and a plurality of user terminals 20 such as personal computers used by users who use the content. And a web server 30 storing HTML data for constructing a web page such as a personal site or a blog where contents are published in a tag format. The content providing server 10, the user terminal 20, and the web server 30 are connected via a network 50 such as the Internet, and can transmit and receive data to and from each other via respective communication interfaces.

  In the content providing system 1 according to the present embodiment, the content providing server 10 accesses the content providing server 10 and reproduces music in HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) data that constructs a web page on which the content is disclosed. An HTML tag containing address information is embedded. Therefore, when the user accesses the web page, the content of the web page itself provided from the web server 30 is displayed on the user terminal 20, and the music player module provided from the content providing server 10 and The music content is reproduced by the music data or the like.

  With reference to FIG.2 and FIG.3, the structure of the content provision server 10 is demonstrated in detail. FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram showing the configuration of the content providing server 10. In the present embodiment, the content providing server 10 is a server operated by a person who provides music content, but a case in which the content provider uses a rental server provided by a person other than the content provider is also assumed. .

  As shown in FIG. 2, the content providing server 10 stores various information such as a CPU 11 serving as a calculation unit that performs various calculations, a memory 12 used as a temporary work area or a storage area of the calculation unit, and the like. And an HDD (Hard Disk Drive) 13 as storage means. The HDD 13 stores a DB (Database) 15 in which data necessary for providing tag content is stored. The DB 15 stores a music DB 151, a user information DB 152, a station DB 153, a playlist DB 154, and a URL authentication management DB 155. A program DB 158 is included.

  The music DB 151 is a DB that stores material data of music provided in the content providing service. Each music record in the music DB 151 includes information such as “music ID”, “music data”, “artist name”, “music name”, and “music genre” for identifying each music. In the present embodiment, MP3 format data is adopted as the song data in the song DB 151. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and music files in other formats such as WMA and AAC may be adopted as appropriate. .

  The user information DB 152 to the playlist DB 154 that are databases holding setting information set by the user will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 3 is a diagram showing the contents of each record recorded in the user information DB 152, the station DB 153, the playlist DB 154, and the URL authentication management DB 155.

  The user information DB 152 is a DB that stores information about registered users who use tag content, that is, paste tag content on their web pages. As shown in FIG. 3, each user record in the user information DB 152 stores information on “user ID”, “login ID”, and “password” for identifying each user. This password is used for login authentication when a registered user of the tag content providing service logs in to the service, and is set by the user at the time of registration. In this embodiment, an e-mail address is used as the “login ID”. However, other types of login IDs such as a login ID arbitrarily set by the user may be used.

  Each record of the station DB 153 stores information on “station ID”, “user ID”, and “station name”. The “station ID” is an ID set for each station each time the station is registered by the user, and together with the “user ID” of the user who registered the station and the “station name” set by the user. It is stored in the station DB 153.

  Station registration is performed when a user accesses the content providing server 10 from the user terminal 20 and performs URL authentication described later. The setting contents of the station can be changed as appropriate. The station ID is content specifying information for specifying the content to be provided to the web page, and the music content is distributed to each web page according to the station ID.

  Each record in the playlist DB 115 stores information on “user ID”, “station ID”, and “music ID”. The music playlist represents a list of music to be played back at each station. The “music ID” is stored in the order in which the music ID selected by the user from the music stored in the music DB 111 is played.

  Each record in the URL authentication management DB 155 stores information on “user ID”, “station ID”, and “authentication URL”. As will be described later, when a user first mounts a music player on a desired web page and accesses it, a station to be set as the player of the web page is registered. When the station is registered, the content providing server 10 authenticates whether or not the registration is performed by a legitimate user. If the registration is performed by a legitimate user, the web page in which the station is registered in the “authentication URL”. Is recorded.

  In this way, if the authentication URL is managed for each station ID, it is possible to prevent the music content set by this user from being used on other web pages by a person other than the registered user. The user can also mount the same station on a plurality of web pages. In this case, one station is associated with a plurality of authentication URLs and recorded in the URL authentication DB 155. . Further, by changing the station ID that is the content specifying information, the user can change the content of the content to be distributed for each URL.

  The program DB 158 is a DB that stores various programs necessary for providing the content providing service. For example, a program module for the above-described player program module, user service registration processing, authentication of a user who logs in to the service, and the like are stored. The station according to the present embodiment is a Flash player using Flash (registered trademark), but may be implemented using Java (registered trademark), ActiveX (registered trademark), or the like.

  User terminal A20-1, user terminal B20-2,... Are terminals such as a personal computer used by a user who uses the content providing service, and includes a display, a PC main body, a keyboard, a mouse, and the like as an input device. The PC main body includes an arithmetic device and a storage device (not shown). Of course, the user terminal is not limited to a PC, and may be any other computer such as a PDA, a mobile phone, a game terminal, etc., as long as the terminal can execute the player module and can connect to the content providing server 10 by connecting to the network. Also good.

  The web server A30-1, web server B30-2,... Are servers owned by providers (ISPs) subscribed to by users who have opened homepages and blogs, web servers installed by users at home, etc. is there. The web server 30 includes an arithmetic device and a storage device (not shown), and HTML data for constructing a web page such as a blog is stored in the storage device. In the present embodiment, the user terminal 20 and the web server 30 are described as being configured as separate computers. However, when the user uses a personal computer at home as a web server, the user terminal 20 and the web server 30 are configured as a single computer. The functions as a user terminal and a web server may be provided.

In the HTML data for constructing this web page, a content tag for embedding a music player in the user's web page and using the content is embedded. This content tag is described as follows, for example.
<script
type = "text / javascript" language = "javascript"
src = "http://fogma.net/ID001000000005"></script>
This “ID001000000005” is the user ID.

In addition, the size of the station mounted in the web page may be defined, and the following content tag may be used.
<object WIDTH = "168"
HEIGHT = "256">
<param name = "movie"
value = "http://fogma.net/ID001000000005.swf">
<embed name = "obp"
src = "http://fogma.net/ID001000000005.swf" WIDTH = "168"
HEIGHT = "256"></embed>
</ object>

  Thus, in this content tag, the address of the content providing server 10 and the user ID of the user who has requested the issuance of the content tag are described. The content tag is issued by the content providing server 10 when the user first accesses the content providing server 10 and performs user registration. In user registration, the login ID and password input by the user are recorded in the above-described user information DB 152. The form for issuing the content tag may be displayed on a registration page provided by the content providing server 10 or may be sent to the user by e-mail in which the content tag is described. good. These processes are realized by the CPU 11 of the content providing server 10 executing a predetermined program in the program DB 158.

  The user who has acquired the tag for content inserts and describes this tag in the HTML data for constructing the web page published by himself / herself. The HTML data in which the content tag is inserted is stored in a storage device in the web server 30, and a music player that plays music by a predetermined station is mounted on the user terminal 20 of the user who accesses the web page. That is, the page on which the music content is mounted is displayed.

  The configuration of the content providing system 1 according to the present embodiment has been described above. Next, the URL authentication process for confirming whether or not a legitimate user provides music content on each web page will be described. To do. FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing the flow of URL authentication processing. If this URL authentication is first executed once, the authentication URL is recorded in the URL authentication management DB 155 as an authenticated URL. Therefore, after the user inserts the HTML tag into the HTML data, the user performs URL authentication only once. Just do it.

  First, in step 11 (S11), a legitimate user who has inserted a content tag into his / her web page accesses the page. That is, the user terminal 20 used by the user accesses the web server 30 that manages the web page. Then, in S <b> 12, HTML data for constructing the web page is transmitted from the web server 30 to the user terminal 20.

  The user terminal 20 analyzes the HTML data (S13) and accesses the content providing server 10 according to the address information (http://fogma.net/ID001000000005) of the content tag in the HTML data (S14). In step S <b> 15, the content providing server 10 transmits a player module, which is a content reproduction tool, to the accessing user terminal 20. This transmitted player is recorded with a user ID “001000000005” based on the address information.

  The computing device of the user terminal 20 executes the player module and displays a screen on which the player is placed at a predetermined position on the web page on the display. When the player module is executed, the URL of the web page is set to be transmitted from the user terminal 20 to the content providing server 10, and the arithmetic device of the user terminal 20 acquires the URL of the web page (S16). ) And the user ID recorded in the player are transmitted to the content providing server 10 (S17).

  The CPU 11 of the content providing server 10 that has received the URL and the user ID checks whether the received URL is stored in the URL authentication management DB 155 as an authenticated authentication URL in association with the received user ID. That is, a URL authentication check is performed (S20).

  If the URL has already been recorded as the authentication URL, the process proceeds to S28, and the CPU 11 controls the user terminal 20 to perform station distribution. That is, the CPU 11 refers to the URL authentication management DB 155 to obtain a station ID, obtains a station name from the station DB 153 based on the station ID, transmits the station name to the user terminal 20, and also based on the station ID. The music ID is acquired from the playlist DB 154, and the music is sequentially streamed from the music DB 151 to the user terminal 20. As a result, the music content is provided to the user (S29). FIG. 5C is a diagram showing the content displayed to the player when the music content is distributed to the user terminal 20.

  On the other hand, if the URL is not yet recorded in the URL authentication management DB as an authentication URL in S20, the process proceeds to S21, and the content providing server 10 makes a URL authentication request to the user terminal 20.

  In the user terminal 20 that has received the URL authentication request, a process for URL authentication is performed. If the user has not logged in to the content providing service, a login process (S22) is performed prior to the URL authentication. The login screen is displayed because it is necessary to do so. FIG. 5A is a diagram illustrating the contents of a login screen displayed on the display (inside the player) of the user terminal 20.

  As the login screen, as shown in FIG. 5A, a column for inputting a mail address as a login ID and a column for inputting a password are displayed. When the user inputs the login ID and password using the input device (keyboard or the like) of the user terminal 20, the input content is sent to the content providing server 10, and the content providing server refers to the user information DB 152. Login authentication is performed. If the login ID and password are correct, the content providing server 10 transmits information indicating that the login authentication has been normally completed from the content providing server 10 to the user terminal 20, and the login authentication ends. Note that once login authentication is performed, the user ID corresponding to the login ID is encrypted and stored as a cookie in the user terminal 20. Therefore, it is necessary to perform the login process again as long as the user uses the same terminal. Absent.

  When the user has already logged in and when the login authentication is completed, the process proceeds to URL authentication processing, and first, a user ID check is performed in S23. This is because URL authentication in a certain web page is performed only by the user who has inserted the content tag into the web page.

  Specifically, the arithmetic unit of the user terminal 20 compares the user ID recorded in the player with the user ID of the logged-in user stored in the cookie. Proceeding to the authentication screen display, the URL authentication process is performed. If they do not match, the process proceeds to the error screen display of S25 as NG, and the URL authentication is not performed. In this way, only the owner of the player (a user who has implemented a content tag on the web page) can perform URL authentication, so that content distribution to the web page is performed. In this case, it is possible to prevent an illegal act such that the user arbitrarily installs and distributes another person's content on his / her own web page without permission. Note that the user ID of the owner of the player may be acquired from the content HTML tag.

In S24, a URL authentication screen is displayed in the player according to the settings of the player module (S24). FIG. 5B is a diagram showing the content of the URL authentication screen displayed on the display of the user terminal 20. In the URL authentication, as shown in FIG. 5B, the URL of the web page acquired by the player module is displayed in the URL column in the screen, so the user only has to click the “OK” button. Further, at this time, the user can set the station (set the music to be distributed). For station setting, as shown in FIG. 5B, station options are displayed. Therefore, the user can perform station setting by selecting a desired option. Here, `` Rock & Pops Station '', `` Jazz Station '', `` Classic `` Station '', `` HipPop
"Station" is displayed as an option for station settings.

When the user clicks the “OK” button, the user ID stored in the cookie, the URL, and the set station ID are transmitted to the content providing server 10 (S26). For example, when the user ID is “00100000001” and the URL is “http://corecolors.com/music/”, “http://fogma.net/checkstation?id=00100000001&url=http://corecolors. com / music /
"HTTP / 1.1" information is sent.

  On the other hand, if the user ID check in S23 is NG and the process proceeds to S25, the error screen “No right to set” shown in FIG. Music content is not provided.

  In S27, the content providing server 10 records the authentication URL in the URL authentication management DB 155 together with the user ID and the station ID received in S26.

  Subsequently, in S28, the content providing server 10 refers to the station DB 153 and the playlist DB 154, and distributes the user ID and the station associated with the station ID to the user terminal 20. That is, the music set in the station is distributed to the user terminal 20, and the music content is played on the user terminal 20 (S29). FIG. 5D is a diagram showing the display contents of the player when the music content is provided on the user terminal 20.

  As described above, the URL authentication process has been described in detail, but the process on the user terminal 20 side is realized by the arithmetic device of the user terminal 20 executing the URL authentication program and the login program implemented in the player module, The processing on the providing server 10 side is realized by the CPU 11 executing a predetermined program in the program DB 158.

  Next, the flow of processing when a user B other than the user A who has inserted a content tag (user A's user ID is described) into a web page that is not URL-authenticated will be described. To do. When user B accesses the web page of user A using his / her user terminal 20, S11, S12, S13, S14, S15, S16, S17, S20, S21, (S22) and S23 are similarly performed. However, in the user ID check in S23, since the user ID of the player (user A) is different from the user ID (user B) acquired from the cookie, the process proceeds to S25, and the user terminal 20 receives the information shown in FIG. The error screen is displayed, and the content is not distributed to the user terminal 20.

  Of course, when another user B accesses the web page of the user A for which URL authentication has been performed, the URL has already been authenticated, so the process proceeds from S20 to S28, and the user terminal 20 of the user B is contacted. Content is distributed / reproduced (S29).

  In the present embodiment, the lower URL of the authenticated URL is set to be handled as the authentication URL. For example, when “http://corecolors.com/kiko/” is registered as the authentication URL, “http://corecolors.com/kiko/page1.html”, “http://corecolors.com/kiko” /page2.html "," http://corecolors.com/kiko/dir1/ "," http://corecolors.com/kiko/dir2/ "are also treated as URL-authenticated, and the station is the same as the upper URL. It is treated as if a station ID has been set.

  However, if URL authentication is performed independently for the lower URL and another station is set, the station set for the lower URL is naturally delivered. That is, in the present embodiment, priority is given to a station set by a lower URL.

  As described above, according to the present embodiment described in detail, the web page for distributing the music content can be recognized on the content providing server side. Therefore, the web page of the URL authenticated by the authorized user, that is, content distribution is permitted It is possible to control so that the content is provided only to the web page that is being operated, and the content is not provided to an unauthorized web page to which the content tag is illegally pasted. In particular, in the case of content that involves a copyright problem such as music content, managing a web page that permits content distribution can prevent unauthorized use of the content, and has great advantages.

  In the present embodiment, since the station ID that is the content specifying information is associated with each authenticated web page and recorded in the URL authentication management DB 155, even the same user is provided for each web page. It is possible to change the content of the content to be performed.

  The embodiment of the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and various modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention. For example, in the present embodiment, the music has been described as an example of the content to be provided. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and various contents can be used as long as the content can be provided to each web page in a tag format. Can be provided.

  For example, a virtual community as disclosed in Patent Document 1 may be provided as content on a web page. In this case, as the content specifying information, address information of the user in the virtual community is assumed. In this case, a part of the area in the vicinity of the user's address is cut out from the map of the virtual community and provided to the web page as a virtual tag community.

  Furthermore, contents such as videos, news, TV programs, and electronic bulletin boards can be provided. In the case of news content, if different channels are set as content specifying information for each web page, news of a different genre can be provided for each page.

  In this embodiment, the authentication URL is managed in association with the user ID. However, the authentication URL is not limited to the user ID and can be managed by using a login ID or the like as long as it is a user identifier that can identify the user. good.
