A recording and/or reproducing apparatus records and/or reproduces a recording medium on which musical information is recorded discretely together with management information for managing the recorded musical information. The apparatus calculates, based on the management information, a playing time of each musical piece, a total playing time of all of the musical pieces recorded on the recording medium, a remaining time for which the recording medium can be further recorded, and a remaining number of musical pieces which can be further recorded onto the recording medium, and displays the result of the calculation.
