A commercial sending system that can easily record a non-recorded
commercial material is provided. When a play list is input from a creating
block or a receiving block, a CM material DB managing block is asked
whether or not CM materials included in the list have been recorded in the
system. If a non-recorded CM material is included in the list, the
non-recorded CM material is displayed on a sending terminal. In addition,
a record list creating block automatically creates a record list for the
non-recorded CM material. The record list is displayed on a recording
terminal. These operations are performed for all CM materials included in
the list.
