First Claim
1. A playback apparatus comprising:
- an operation plane;
a detection unit to detect a first contact relationship, a second contact relationship, and a third contact relationship between the operation plane and an operation object, the second contact relationship including a higher degree of contact than the first contact relationship, and the third contact relationship having a higher degree of contact than the second contact relationship;
a creation unit to create a list screen of content data allowing selection of content data based on movement of the operation object with respect to the operation plane while in the first contact relationship, the content data selected being in close proximity to a position on the list screen specified by movement of the operation object;
a playback unit configured to play back the content data; and
a playback control unit configured to control the playback unit to play back the content data, which is selected on the list screen when the contact relationship moves from the first contact relationship to the second contact relationship, when the contact relationship moves from the second contact relationship to the third contact relationship.
