Abstract
A playback apparatus can communicate with a second server, which temporarily stores in a first buffer compressed digital data that is received from a first server, and when the first buffer has stored a first data volume of the compressed digital data, which is a volume that is sufficient for a decoding of the compressed digital data, reads the compressed digital data out of the first buffer and decodes it into decompressed digital data. The playback apparatus includes a second buffer, which temporarily stores the decompressed digital data that is received from the second server; a D/A conversion portion (), which converts into analog data the decompressed digital data that is temporarily stored in the second buffer; and a notification information generation portion (), which generates notification information that conveys storage statuses of the first buffer and the second buffer.
