A transmitting section divides a content recorded in a recording medium into data of a predetermined size, reproduces the data, and transmits the data to a receiving device. An erasing section erases the outputted data recorded in the recording medium, when the data of the predetermined size is transmitted to the receiving device. An EOB adding section adds an EOB, which shows an end of transmission, to the data transmitted from the transmitting section, when a power off signal is inputted during transmission of data by the transmitting section. An EOB-added data position storing section stores a recording position, on the recording medium, of the data to which the EOB is added. Then, a power off control section turns off a power of the device.
