A broadcasting system which can automatically record only contents matching needs of a user and effectively save a capacity of storing means. First, with a transmission apparatus, the broadcasting system sends contents data and classification identifying information, which corresponds to and indicates details of a data part considered to have details different from each other forming the contents data as one program. In addition to this, on a recording apparatus side, the broadcasting system detects matching with the received classification identifying information and designated classification identifying information such that only a data part corresponding to classification identifying information, for which matching has been detected in this way, of the received contents data is recorded in storing means. Alternatively, the broadcasting system makes it possible to set required data as key information according to an operation. Then, the broadcasting system performs detection for a data part, which matches the set key information, of the received contents data such that, in response to the data part matching the key information being detected from the received contents data in this way, only a required data part including and following this data part is recorded in the storing means.
