In an optical disc having an RFID tag, disc control information needed for control of reproduction of the content recorded in the disc body of the optical disc is stored in the RFID tag. Thereby, even if the content recorded in the disc body is illegally copied in some way, common optical disc apparatus incapable of reading RFID tags cannot read and copy the disc control information stored in the RFID tag. Accordingly, unauthorized copying of the content recorded on the optical disc can be reliably prevented without the use of special cryptographic technology.
