If you use DVD Decrypter or even DVD Shrink, that would do the trick.  You'll need a burning engine as well, such as Roxio or Nero (or you can probably download a free one). My understanding is that you are allowed to make one copy under the "Fair Use" provision of the law. Although this is still a contentious issue.

You can copy-protect the CD so that copying will become much more difficult. However if someone wants to make a copy, they will, and u simply cant stop them. However if you simply want to be able to tell the differance of the CD, u can keep record of the Date created, Last Date edited, Created By Whom. By right clicking the file, then click more, and voila, its there. If u simply want to make sure u dont get  a 'Copy' after giving away the orginal, just use a permanent marker and mark the CD using a very obstructed symbol that cant be copied.

copying is illegal....yeah yeah yeah... but...\n\nmost producers of kiddy disks will replace kids disks for a nominal charge. they often don't even require that you return the broken disk!

there is no way you can totally secure a CD against copying.\n\nThe problem is that you will have to distribute the mechanism to decrypt or otherwise run the CD with the CD itself or it will be useless. And so it can be broken.\n\nThink of it as locking your door and then hiding the key under the doormat and putting a note on the door telling people the key is under the doormat.

Hardware or Software. \nOK. This is what i just did . I installed a game on pc. cool.\n I tried to burn the game but wouldnt read it said it was scratched blah blah blah.\nI have a common Program called Alcohol 120% Like many other good burning program it can fast skip read errors like theres no tomorow. Lots of em.  I cloned it and play it on a virtual CD/DVD drive that Alc.120% suplied for me . Of which i can copy to cd when i want without the scratches and skips

that's a fancy way of saying that the music license will not allow the file to be burned to CD.\n\nNow, if you were to analog record the music with a program like Wavepad and then burn it to CD, i guess there would be no way to stop you...\n\nremoving DRM from music is illegal.  creating unprotected recorded copies IS perfectly legal (so long as you actually own the music legally).

You need to copy not the contents but an "image" of the original cd.\nA freeware program like "burn4free" will do this. D/load from\nhttp://www.burn4free.com/\n\nHowever if you dont want to do the above, you can just copy the original cd contents to another CD..there is always a "setup" file which if, when you explore the CD contents, you click on this file, it will install all the contents automatically....the trick is to recognise the main set-up/install file when you see it as sometimes there are more than one setup files on the CD.\nHope this helps

If you want copy a protected CD for "backup purposes" you should check out programs such as Alcohol 120%, Clone CD and Clone DVD, Virtual Drive and so on. They are not free unfortunately.

This is a classic problem that never be resolved. Imagine: There are so many great programmers in Microsoft, but we can easily copy Microsoft Products, don't we? Or another xample: There are some protection software but we can copy that software by using crack or illegal serial numbers. Very sad. You can try to use simple protection like serial number, medium protection like CD protection, or use hard protection like activation software. But, all methods mention above can be broke by cracker, hacker, etc. In my humble opinion, you can try to make custom software for one company. Give them good supports. If another companies want to use your programs, just change several text in source code, and then re-compile it for that company. Very annoying, but effective.

You'll need to select a media format, i.e. Windows media player or whatever. Put a CD in the burner, and a small window should pop up asking you what you what you want to do.\n\nYOu should select copy data to CD\nthe windows media player will open\nthen you go to the program, copy it into the player\nhit record\nit should burn it right onto the disk.\nIf it has copyright stuff, you may have trouble, sometimes they only allow the program to be on one machine.

try 1 click dvd copy.its easy and works great also do not have any backround programs running.this includes screensavers.etc.disable everything while burning.having programs running will interfere with the burning of your dvd

Two things.\nONE: Why do you want to encrypt it? its pretty pointless, it means that in order to copy it, you will have to break the protection.  That being said,\nTWO: Copy protecting the CD will still allow it to play in any ordinary CD player.

Nothing wrong with your DVD burner.  None of them are able to copy professional DVDs with copy protection on them.  That what copy protection means - you can't copy it.  While there are some programs that get around copy protection, be warned that they are illegal and it is possible to be arrested just for owning the software, you don't even have to use it.  (I will let others debate whether thats fair or not - I'm just making sure you know what the current law is.)

There are many methods out there, most of them are expensive however.  The thing to keep in mind is that the data you put on a CD is meant to be read, and there will always be some enterprising hacker with nothing but time on his hands to figure out how to get that data off and do something else with it.\n\nThe only good way of reliably protecting that data is encrypting it, but keep in mind it will be useless to you as well, until it is decrypted, which makes it sort of pointless for most applications.\n\nIf this is software you are trying to protect, there are licensing schemes available.  There are some for media schemes as well, although it would take a bit of effort to set that up.
