摘要

A power consumption control method is applied to a communication system including a reproduction apparatus capable of reproducing content data and an output apparatus capable of outputting data based on the reproduced content data. The content data reproduced by the reproducing apparatus is transmitted to the output apparatus through a radio communication interface. At least one of the reproducing apparatus and the output apparatus is transitioned from an ordinary operation mode to a low-power consumption operation mode through the radio communication interface, when a data reproduction stop request is made in another of the reproducing apparatus and the output apparatus.
