Information distribution system, and vehicle-mounted device
View Patent ↗Provided is an information distribution system ( 100 ), in which a control section ( 4 ) deletes, when a member registration cancellation of a distribution service is instructed by an input unit ( 1 d ) of a vehicle-mounted device ( 10 ), the contents information and the uplink information stored in a storage unit ( 1 f ), other than the fundamental information, thereby to set ON a member registration cancellation flag. If the member registration cancellation flag is set ON when the communication with a center apparatus ( 30 ) is established, moreover, the control section ( 4 ) writes a code indicating the member registration cancellation, in the fundamental information of the uplink information, and transmits the same to the center apparatus ( 30 ). When this center apparatus ( 30 ) receives the uplink information from the vehicle-mounted device ( 10 ), the center apparatus ( 30 ) decides whether or not the code indicating the member registration cancellation is contained in the fundamental information. If the center apparatus ( 30 ) decides that the code is contained, the center apparatus ( 30 ) deletes, from a member information DB ( 341 ), the member registration information of the record having the vehicle-mounted device ID of the sender vehicle-mounted device ( 10 ). As a result, it is possible to cancel the member registration of the distribution service of the content information in the vehicle-mounted device.
