Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a content distribution system, a content distribution method, and a program capable of improving a user experience of a user who views content. A distribution server distributes content in which a plurality of high-definition partial images and a low-resolution entire image including those partial images as regions are hierarchically configured. Then, a mobile display device displays the entire image and displays the partial image in a selectable manner on the entire image, and operation of selecting a predetermined partial image is performed. On the other hand, a large screen display device displays the partial images distributed from the distribution server in high definition according to operation on the mobile display device. The present technology can be applied to, for example, a distribution system that distributes content in which a plurality of high-definition partial images and a low-resolution entire image including those partial images as regions are hierarchically configured.

Abstract: The present technology relates to an information processing apparatus and an information processing method that enable construction of preference information of many users without special communication. In an information processing apparatus for managing content to be delivered to a plurality of other information processing apparatuses via a network, content information of content delivered in response to a request to a plurality of the other information processing apparatuses is acquired by an acquisition unit, and interest information of a plurality of the other information processing apparatuses is constructed by a construction unit on the basis of the acquired content information. The present technology is applicable to, in one example, a delivery system that delivers content from a server to terminal device via a network.

Abstract: The present technology relates to an information processing device enabling performance of display that causes a user to recognize a position in a picture, an information processing method, and a program. Display of a screen is controlled, the screen including: a visual-field picture displaying a region of part of a three-dimensional picture; an indicator having a shape expressing a three-dimensional direction of the three-dimensional picture; and a window expressing the region displayed as the visual-field picture in the indicator. The three-dimensional picture is an entire-celestial-sphere picture. Furthermore, the indicator is a three-dimensional sphere with wire frame. The present technology can be applied to, for example, a head-mounted display or the like that displays a three-dimensional picture, such as an entire-celestial-sphere picture.
