In a system for reproducing AV information from a recording medium, such
as a DVD, not only are usual titles reproduced, but also related
information relevant to specific stream information is acquired easily by
making use of resources on a computer network. In a reproducing system
with the function of reproducing the title information recorded on a DVD
and displaying it on the screen of a display section, when the user
clicks a Web mark on the screen, the CPU links to a Web server on the
Internet via a modem and accesses the Web page related to the stream
information on the screen. At that time, the related Web page is the
selected information conforming to parental information, or attribute
information, set in the system.
