A product mark including a public key certificate issued with respect to an information-recording-medium manufacturing entity or information-recording-medium manufacturing equipment, and an encrypted volume ID calculated by computation based on a product-mark-associated value such as a hash value generated on the basis of the product mark, and a volume ID as an identifier set with respect to a given set of discs to be manufactured, are generated. The product mark and the encrypted volume ID are set as information for generating a key used for decryption of encrypted content, and recorded onto a disc by a reflective-film-removal recording method. Due to this configuration, the product mark and the encrypted volume ID as key generating information cannot be read from a pirated disc produced by physically copying a pit pattern on the basis of a legitimate commercial disc, thereby making it possible to prevent unauthorized reproduction or use of content.
