The present invention discloses a method and apparatus for reducing delay of media playing, and relates to the streaming field. In order to overcome the play delay caused by handover between nodes when the user drags the progress bar in the process of playing a P2P-based streaming program, the present invention discloses a method for reducing delay of playing media: a user node obtains information on a list of nodes that can provide a desired program content; selects a best node among all nodes that can provide the program content corresponding to each time segment, wherein the program content is played in more than one time segment and the best node is closest to the user node among all the nodes; creates a connection with the selected best node; receives media stream data of the program content from the best node; and plays the media stream data. An apparatus for reducing delay of media playing herein includes: a node information obtaining module, a best node selecting module, a connection creating module, and a playing module.
