Abstract
A reproduction device includes a reproduction unit, communication paths, and a communication-path control unit. The reproduction unit is configured to be able to alternatively reproduce content items supplied from sources. The communication paths respectively correspond to the sources. The reproduction unit is connected to the sources via the respective communication paths. The communication-path control unit invalidates, when receiving an instruction to switch to the source having content to be reproduced by the reproduction unit, communication via the communication path corresponding to the source before the switching among the communication paths.
