ABSTRACT:
A disk reproduction apparatus having pause time setting device for setting a determined pause time upon receiving an instruction for successive reproduction; automatic pause setting device for setting the apparatus in pause during the pause time and releasing the apparatus from the pause after the pause time has passed; and search device for searching the next music program to be reproduced by moving an optical pickup, wherein the pause time is set to coincide with a time interval between an end of a current music program and a beginning of the next music program to be reproduced, independently of any recorded positions of the music program without making a configuration of the apparatus complex. Thus, when performing a random reproduction of the music programs, listeners can enjoy a natural flow of the successively reproduced music programs like when reproduction is performed of the music programs in order from an inner portion toward an outer portion. Further, listeners can enjoy a disk in many ways as if music programs of other disks were being reproduced.
