A reproducing device includes decoding processors and output controllers, and performs synchronous reproduction for reproducing a content item decoded by one of the decoding processors by at least two of the output controllers and separate reproduction for reproducing the content item decoded by one of the decoding processors by one of the output controllers. The reproducing device includes: a manager that manages an allowed number of reproductions of the content item; a determiner that determines, when a reproduction instruction is given, based on the allowed number of reproductions of the content item, whether the separate reproduction is possible and whether the synchronous reproduction is possible; and a controller that performs the separate or synchronous reproduction, based on the determination. The manager decrements by one the allowed number of reproductions of the content item when the separate reproduction is performed, and does not decrement it when the synchronous reproduction is performed.
