Abstract
Disclosed is an apparatus for reproducing main data under an optimum reproduction environment. The reproducing apparatus includes a readout unit (20) for reading out predetermined main data and spatial characteristic data, made up of the information on characteristics of a space in an environment different from the environment under which the main data is to be reproduced, from a recording medium (1) on which the main data and the spatial characteristic data have been recorded. The reproducing apparatus also includes a processing unit (25) for performing predetermined processing for reproduction of the main data, based on the spatial characteristic data read out by the readout unit (20).
