If there is a limitation imposed to the time period within which recording of certain content such as broadcast content is permitted, with the purpose of protection of copyrights of such content, a relationship between the accessible time and a current time is indicated so that a user can be informed of the remaining time before the deadline or the elapsed time since the deadline. In this way, the user can verify how a system is currently working to manage recording operation regarding the information having restricted or limited accessible time. In addition, automatic reproduction of digital material performed immediately before the deadline can help the user to avoid careless failure to access the provided content.
