Provided are a method of recording/reproducing data under control of a domain management system. The method includes extracting, from the write command, domain management information regarding the predetermined domain and contents, and copy control information specifying an extent of copying the contents within the predetermined domain; recording the extracted domain management information on the storage medium; generating a domain-bound flag that is used to determine whether the recording apparatus which records the contents on a storage medium is present in the predetermined domain, based on the extracted copy control information; and recording the domain-bound flag and the contents on the storage medium. Accordingly, it is possible to record contents, recording of which is limited within a predetermined domain, on a storage medium outside a slave under control of a domain management system, while preventing the contents from being reproduced within other domains.
