The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for transceiving audio data reproduced from a recording medium such as a digital video disk (DVD) through a digital interface such as IEEE 1394. The transmitting method according to the present invention separates an audio data stream from data reproduced from a recording medium, inserts the separated audio data stream into the private data area of an MPEG-formatted data stream, and transmits the MPEG-formatted data stream containing the audio data stream in the private data area through a digital communication line. The receiving method according to the present invention checks whether or not an MPEG-formatted data stream received through a digital interface includes the private data area, extracts audio data inserted in the private data area, and decodes the extracted audio data. As a result, the present invention does not require the conventional re-encoding process after decoding. Therefore, the present invention prevents possible loss of audio data such as LPCM audio data caused from the re-encoding operation as well as reduces device cost.
