PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To efficiently carry out the operation of playing a rewritable disk by a drive of a read-only disk. SOLUTION: WBBM is recorded in a rewritable disk read-in area. The WBBM is a bit map indicating a recorded/unrecorded state for each block which is a recording/reproducing unit. To enable the drive of the read-only disk to perform seek and to stabilize servo, finalization is carried out to record dummy data in the periphery of a recorded block. In this case, the efficiency of the process is improved by referring to the WBBM. By forming the plurality of WBBM in a ring structure, and sequentially updating the WBBM, writing concentration on the same area is prevented, and the destruction of the WBBM by blackout or the like is compensated for. Latest WBBM is displayed by the value of an update counter. COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT
