Abstract

An information processing apparatus first detects the residual amount of gasoline remaining in the gasoline tank, and reads out a prescribed value given as a licensed condition. Next, the apparatus reproduces a musical composition. Then the apparatus calculates the consumption amount of gasoline, and waits till the result of the calculation exceeds the licensed condition while reproducing the musical composition. When the apparatus judges that the consumption amount of gasoline exceeds the licensed condition, the apparatus stops the reproduction of the musical composition. And then, the apparatus erases the musical composition data of the musical composition.
