Abstract

Tracks are automatically selected from plural tracks recorded on a CD and are recorded on a MD so that a total reproducing time of the tracks thus selected is within a recordable time of the MD. Upon receiving a notification of the recordable time of the MD 29, a system controller 14 of a CD player 10 selects and reproduces tracks recorded on the CD 19 in accordance with a predetermined priority order so that the total reproducing time of the tracks thus selected does not exceed the recordable time, and has an MD recorder 20 record these tracks.
