(Corresponding to an example) is realized by executing the RAM or the like as a work area. For example, these various programs correspond to application programs called web browsers. The control unit 140 is a controller, and may be realized by an integrated circuit such as an ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit) or an FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array).

(Acquisition part 141)
The acquisition unit 141 transmits a content transmission request to the providing device 10 in accordance with an operation of the user of the terminal device 100. The acquisition unit 141 may transmit a content transmission request to the providing apparatus 10 together with identification information (for example, Cookie) for identifying the user of the terminal device 100.

  The acquisition unit 141 acquires control information for controlling the display mode of the content together with the content. For example, the acquisition unit 141 receives content and control information corresponding to the content from the providing apparatus 10. The control information is, for example, a program described in a script language such as JavaScript (registered trademark) or CSS.

  For example, the control information causes the terminal device 100 to execute an acquisition procedure, a detection procedure, and a display procedure. The acquisition procedure is, for example, a procedure for acquiring second content including a thumbnail of a moving image. The detection procedure is, for example, a procedure for detecting an operation on an object in the first content. The display procedure is, for example, a procedure for displaying the second content including the thumbnail of the moving image so as to overlap the first content when an operation on the object in the first content is detected by the detection procedure.

  The acquisition unit 141 acquires second content (for example, content C2 in FIG. 2) including a thumbnail of the moving image according to the acquired control information. For example, the acquisition unit 141 transmits a transmission request for the second content to the providing apparatus 10 when an operation on an object in the first content (for example, the content C1 in FIG. 2) is detected. More specifically, when an operation on an object in the first content is detected, the acquisition unit 141 transmits a transmission request for the second content to the providing apparatus 10 by asynchronous communication using Ajax or the like. Then, the acquisition unit 141 receives the second content including the thumbnail of the moving image from the providing apparatus 10 as a response to the transmission request.

  When the detection unit 142 detects an operation on an object in the first content, the acquisition unit 141 performs identification information for identifying the user of the terminal device 100 by asynchronous communication using Ajax or the like. The transmission request may be transmitted to the providing apparatus 10. In this regard, the providing device 10 changes the user information of the user of the terminal device 100 to the user information of the user of the terminal device 100 in response to receiving the transmission request for the second content and the identification information for identifying the user of the terminal device 100 from the terminal device 100. Based on this, a moving image recommended for the user is specified. Then, the providing device 10 transmits the second content including the identified moving image thumbnail to the terminal device 100. In this way, the acquisition unit 141 can receive the second content including the thumbnail of the moving image specified based on the user information.

  Regarding the moving image corresponding to the thumbnail, the providing device 10 may specify a moving image suitable for the user's preference as a moving image recommended for the user based on the user information of the user of the terminal device 10. . For example, the providing device 10 accumulates the viewing history of the moving image of the user of the terminal device 10 as user information via a moving image site or a moving image application provided by the providing device 10. And the provision apparatus 10 specifies the moving image suitable for a user's preference as a moving image recommended to a user based on the user information which shows the preference regarding a user's moving image.

  In the exemplary embodiment illustrated in FIG. 1, the recommended moving image is specified based on user information of a user of the terminal device 10. However, the recommended moving image is not limited to a specific moving image.

  In one example, the recommended moving image may be a currently popular moving image. Such currently popular moving images are identified based on, for example, viewing histories of moving images viewed by a plurality of users during a predetermined period. In this case, the providing device 10 may specify a currently popular moving image as a recommended moving image without referring to the identification information of the terminal device 10 based on the viewing histories of a plurality of users. Then, the terminal device 10 transmits content including a recommended moving image thumbnail to the terminal device 100. In this way, the providing apparatus 10 may make recommendations (recommendations) for currently popular moving images.

  In another example, when the moving image viewed by the user of the terminal device 100 is a series of moving images, the recommended moving image may be a sequel to the moving images of the series. In this example, the providing device 10 recommends a sequel to a moving image based on a user's viewing history of the moving image and information about the sequel to the moving image (for example, information including an identifier corresponding to an episode of a series). It may be specified as a moving image.

  In yet another example, the recommended moving image may be a moving image that is desired as a moving image viewed by the user of the terminal device 100 by the provider of the moving image site provided by the providing device 10. In this example, the providing device 10 uses a moving image based on information indicating a moving image desired by the user of the moving image site as a moving image to be viewed by the user (for example, information indicating a moving image specified by the provider). A moving image desired by a site provider as a moving image to be viewed by a user may be specified as a recommended moving image.

  The recommended moving image may be specified based on a demographic attribute of the user of the terminal device 100. In one example, the providing device 10 receives a search query input in a search box of the portal site via a portal site provided by the providing device 10. In this example, the providing apparatus 10 accumulates demographic attributes determined based on the input search query as user information. Then, the providing device 10 specifies a moving image suitable for the user's preference based on the user information indicating the demographic attribute of the user. In this manner, a moving image suitable for the user's preference can be specified based on the user's demographic attribute.

  The recommended moving image may be specified based on an action history indicating an action on the network of the user of the terminal device 100. For example, it may be specified based on the product purchase history of the user of the terminal device 100. In one example, the providing device 10 accumulates the product purchase history of the shopping site as user information via the shopping site provided by the providing device 10. And the provision apparatus 10 specifies the moving image suitable for a user's preference based on the user information which shows the preference regarding a user's goods.

  For example, when the user has purchased curry roux, potatoes, carrots, and onions, the providing apparatus 10 specifies a curry recipe moving image. In addition, for example, when purchasing stew roux, potatoes, carrots, and onions, the providing apparatus 10 identifies a stew recipe moving image. In this way, a moving image suitable for the user's product-related preference can be specified based on the user's product purchase history.

  The recommended moving image may be a moving image that is frequently viewed by other users associated with the same user attribute as the user attribute of the user of the terminal device 100. In this case, the providing apparatus 10 can view the number of times of viewing for each user attribute that is the number of times each of the plurality of moving images has been viewed by the other user described above (for example, the nth moving image is viewed by the user “female”. A user associated with each user attribute (for example, “female”) out of the plurality of moving images (for example, the first to nth moving images) based on the number of times (n is an arbitrary natural number)). The recommended moving image may be specified. For example, the providing apparatus 10 may specify a moving image in which the number of times of viewing corresponding to a predetermined user attribute exceeds a threshold as a recommended moving image for a user associated with the predetermined user attribute. In this way, the providing device 10 can specify a moving image that is frequently viewed by a user associated with the same user attribute as the user attribute of the user of the terminal device 100 as a recommended moving image.

  The moving image frequently viewed by the other users described above may be specified based on the coverage of the user attribute. In this case, for example, the providing apparatus 10 may assign a weight to the number of times of viewing corresponding to the user attribute of the other user based on the coverage that is the ratio of the number of the other user to the number of all the users. . For example, the providing apparatus 10 may multiply the number of views corresponding to the user attribute of the other user by a weight corresponding to the coverage. In one example, the weight is inversely proportional to the size of the coverage. For example, the providing apparatus 10 may specify a moving image in which the number of viewing times assigned with a weight exceeds a threshold as a moving image frequently viewed by the other users described above.

  The acquisition unit 141 transmits a moving image distribution request to the distribution apparatus 20 based on a URL (Uniform Resource Locator) included in the content and for acquiring the moving image. The acquisition unit 141 receives a moving image from the distribution device 20 as a response to the distribution request.

  When the detecting unit 142 detects an operation of putting the cursor on a button indicating a moving image category, the acquiring unit 141 transmits category information indicating the moving image category to the providing apparatus 10 by asynchronous communication. Also good. Then, the acquisition unit 141 may receive the second content including the moving image thumbnail corresponding to the moving image category from the providing apparatus 10.
