Subsequently, the web server 200 matches and stores identification information of the audio interface 4 with member information of the user, and uses the identification information of the audio interface 4 as authentication information of the member (S6).

When the installation of the music content management program is completed through the above-described process, when the client terminal 100 accesses the web server 200, the web server 200 sends a web page for selecting a sound source file to the client terminal 100. Output (S10). Here, the sound source file may be configured in various formats such as MIDI. For reference, a MIDI (Music Instrument Digital Interface) file includes digital commands indicating notes, speed of music, and characteristics of music.

When the customer terminal 100 selects a specific sound source through the sound source file selection web page provided through the web server 200 (S12), that is, when a specific music is selected, the web server 200 configures a sound source from the sound source file information. Extracting the element and outputting the sound source component to the customer terminal 100 receives a selection for the sound source component from the customer terminal 100 (S14).

For example, for a sound source file consisting of four sound source components (for example, piano, cello, violin, flute), the user may display the sound source components piano, cello, violin, and flute on the customer terminal 100. Allow at least one of them to be selected. To this end, the web server 200 to the customer terminal 100 a web page having the sound source component information of the sound source file and an object (for example, a check box, etc.) that can display the selected state of each sound source component.
