The reproducing apparatus comprises an inserting opening part through which the case is inserted into the reproducing apparatus, a turntable for rotating the disc-shaped recording medium, and a clamping mechanism for clamping at least one of the disc-shaped recording medium or the lid member provided at the innermost part on the opposite side from the inserting opening part with respect to the turntable. The inserting opening part has an inserting opening which has a shape corresponding to the shape of the case and through which the case is inserted, and guiding members provided at positions relative to the inserting opening and having small frictional resistances for guiding the case so that the case makes contact with the guiding members and not with the inserting opening.
