The present invention relates to an information processing device, an information processing method, and a program for easily acquiring information. A television receiver accesses an application server and acquires an application list therefrom. When an application is selected from the application list, the television receiver again accesses the application server and acquires the selected application therefrom. While executing a process based on the acquired application, the television receiver accesses a content server as needed and acquires content data therefrom. The acquired application and content data are deleted from a storage unit when an end of the process based on the application is designated. The present invention applies to television receivers which acquire data via a network.
