    Abstract: A broadcast system acquires a first audio signal and a second audio signal, and switch from one of broadcast operations by a broadcast device to another thereof, the broadcast operations including a first broadcast operation that transmits the first audio signal and the second broadcast operation that transmits a second audio signal. The first audio signal includes: a first voice; and a first sound component representative of first identification information corresponding to first related information related to the first voice, the first related information being provided from a distribution apparatus via a communication network to a terminal apparatus, and the second audio signal includes: a second voice; and a second sound component representative of second identification information corresponding to second related information related to the second voice, the second related information being registered in advance in the terminal apparatus.

    Abstract: A terminal apparatus receives identification information for events transmitted sequentially in conjunction with occurrence of events; sequentially identifies estimated time points at which each event is estimated to occur; determines whether progress of the plurality of events has stopped depending on whether it receives identification information for each event at a corresponding estimated time point for each event; in each of a plurality of event groups obtained by temporally dividing events, when an estimated time point is reached for an earliest event among at least one event belonging to each event group, causes a playback device to play related information for the at least one event belonging to each event group, and when progress of events is determined to have stopped, defers update of related information, which the playback device caused to play, and then resumes update of played related information when identification information is received after the determination.
