[0013] Another object of the present invention is to provide an apparatus for effectively reproducing data of a recording medium and downloaded data.

Problems solved by technology

In association with the above-mentioned situation, there has recently been developed a reproducing device (also called a player) based on the BD international standard, but the BD international standard has not yet been completed, such that many limitations and problems occur in developing the reproducing device.

However, the above-mentioned reproducing device has not yet been developed, such that it is unable to reproduce content provider (CP) data downloaded from an external device over a network simultaneously with reproducing data of the recording medium, such that many limitations and problems occur in developing a BD-based reproducing device employing a network.
