In addition, the above configuration may be implemented in any one or both of the sound source providing server 10 and the user terminal 20 to operate one of the embodiments of the present invention.

As a specific embodiment, the storage unit 101 may store tag information corresponding to the sound source by matching the sound source. In this case, the tag information is a kind of keyword information for describing the sound source, and may be stored as being matched with the sound source as data separate from the sound source. The user can predict the mood of the music or search for the sound source according to the tag information. The tag information may be set and stored by the provider of the sound source before the sound source is provided to the user, which is called self tag information. On the other hand, arbitrary tag information that a user directly adds to a sound source is called creation tag information. The music providing system 100 may include a tag assignment unit 102 as a module that provides an interface for receiving creation tag information from a user.

The tag assigning unit 102 may receive arbitrary writing tag information from the user with respect to the sound source. At this time, the type of information that can be received as the creation tag information from the user is not limited. That is, the user can input the tag for the sound source as he / she wants.

Through the embodiment of the group providing unit 104 as described above, the user-specific sound source group generated according to the tag information including the created tag information can be shared with other users. This has the same effect as sharing a user's own emotion with other users.

That is, by using the embodiment of the group providing unit 104, by comparing the sound source groups generated by a plurality of users to search for similar sound source group overlapping a predetermined number of sound sources, another sound source of the user who created the similar sound source group You can recommend groups to each other. Through this, it is possible to provide a sound source group corresponding to the emotional taste of the user or to recommend a user having a similar emotional taste as a friend.

Meanwhile, the music providing system 100 further includes a charging unit 105 for charging a fee for another user terminal in accordance with the provision of the sound source group, and the charging unit 105 includes a list of sound sources held by the other user terminal. You can charge only for unowned sound sources by comparing the sound sources included in the sound source group. As a result, when the user is provided with the sound source group, the user does not have to pay a duplicate price for the sound source included in the sound source group and the previously used sound source.

In addition, the charging unit 105 may provide the sound source group to other users and distribute the profits obtained to the user who provided the sound source group. Since individual music has new value by combining with new music, it can be used as a platform for publishing a music group in which a specific music is combined or for publishing a special purpose omnibus album by a celebrity or a professional. can do. For example, you can present a sound recording group to other users on topics such as “Taegyo music recommended by a doctor ~” and “Party music that Top Star likes to enjoy”. As such, by distributing a certain profit to the user who provided the sound source group, the user can pay for the creation of the sound source group and encourage the creation of the sound source group. As other users use the music group created according to purpose, taste, emotion and mood, and pay for it, creating a new profit structure in the music market as a whole.

In addition, the reproduction unit 106 may reproduce the sound source stored in the storage unit 101. As described above, the storage unit 101 may be included in one or both of the user terminal 20 and the sound source providing server 10. As an embodiment of the present invention, when the storage unit 101 is included in the sound source providing server 10 and the playback unit 106 is included in the user terminal 20, the playback unit 106 is the sound source providing server.

In this case, the tag information may include at least one of self tag information and created tag information stored corresponding to the sound source.

As another embodiment, the playback unit 106 receives a selection input for the sound source group generated by the group generation unit 103 from the user, includes the sound sources included in the selected sound source group in the playlist, and plays the playlist. Can play. In this case, the sound source does not need to be moved to a separate folder in order to include the sound source in the playlist, and may be implemented by generating a list index of the sound source to be played.

The playlist as described above is configured according to the tag information added to the sound source by the user, through which the user can be provided with a playlist that matches the purpose, taste, emotion and mood at that time. For example, if a user enters a writing tag information of “boy” which is the name of his boyfriend who is separated in one or more sound sources, when the boyfriend breaks up, he is provided with a playlist by inputting tag information of “boy” At any time, you can listen to music that matches your emotions.

As an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the playback unit 106 may randomly play the sound sources included in the playlist, or play them in a sorted order on a predetermined basis, or according to the order set by the user. In addition, the music files in the group may be inputted when a user inputs to each music file setting value (for example, volume, bass, treble, distortion, echo, etc.). It can be played back according to the settings set.

In addition, when the playback unit 106 plays back one or more sound sources grouped by predetermined tag information, when the tag information corresponding to the one or more sound sources is plural, the playback unit 106 assigns a weight to each of the tag information to be included in the playlist.
