Okay, so encrypted or not, data is data, right? So what is it about the 1s and 0s representing a DVD’s pits and lands where the CSS copy protection data is that supposedly makes them “impossible” to be written as 1s and 0s–pits and lands–on a kind of burnable DVD other than DVD-R for “professional authoring”? Now, I haven’t tried this for myself yet, but I’ve heard about it enough that I have the question anyway. Why is this data supposedly not like any other 1s and 0s that you can put on a DVD-R-general or a DVD+R?
Will you come back and see my responses to your answers, please?
Thanks,
Mike Christensen
Thanks, Mercuri, for your attempt to answer my question. However, that doesn't tell me anything about why we can only burn CSS to a DVD-R "for professional authoring" but not to a DVD-R-general (for general purpose) or to a DVD+R.
Anyone else wanna try answering this?
