Abstract: A game image generating section 120 generates a first image and a second image of an application. An image providing section 152 provides the first image to an output apparatus 4. A sharing processing section 160 streaming-distributes the second image to the sharing server. A display image generating section 150 may generate a display image including at least the first image and information associated with the second image. In addition, the sharing processing section 160 may instruct the application to generate the second image on the basis of a request from a viewing user.

Abstract: In an information processing apparatus of a guest user, an image data acquisition unit acquires content image data from a host user, and a reproduction processing unit reproduces the content image data and outputs the content image data from an outputting apparatus. An information acquisition unit acquires information for specifying a sharing mode of a content image, and a notification unit notifies the user of the information indicative of the mode of the sharing process in an associated relationship with the reproduced content image. Further, if the information acquisition unit acquires information indicating that the content is within a sharing restriction period, then the notification unit notifies the user of the information indicating that the content is within the sharing restriction period.
