Abstract
In a case where a communication device receives a playback request for second content while playing back first content, the communication device starts playing back the second content, based on a fact that a communication device identified by identification information about a communication device that has transmitted a playback request for the first content is identical to a communication device identified by identification information about a communication device that has transmitted the playback request for the second content, and continues playing back the first content, based on a fact that the communication devices are different. The communication device starts playing back the second content, based on a fact that a user identified by user identification information about the first content is identical to a user identified by user identification information about the second content, and continues playing back the first content, based on a fact that the users are different.
