Abstract
A configuration capable of performing reliable source analysis of illegal copy content using content in which a reproduction path is settable is implemented. Content in which an individual segment region including a plurality of pieces of variation data which include different identification information embedded therein and are decryptable using different keys and a common segment region including single data are provided, and variation data is configured with an aligned unit is set. A content reproducing device calculates a reproduction path by applying a device key and selects and reproduces an aligned unit corresponding to the reproduction path on the basis of a variation data identifier recorded in an adaptation field in a plain text region at the head of a plurality of aligned units constituting the variation data.
