How to create CD/DVD protection?

[lonerunner]

I wanna burn dvd with protection, any suggestion on how to create protected dvd's.

creating protected dvd's isn't that easy, if it was easy then there would be many many more protection companies... there are some (crap) ways to 'protect' the cd/dvd but really, alcohol/daemon will usually be able to make an image of it....

if you want to protect your own software then its best to get in touch with safedisc, securom, starforce, tages and so on.... trying it yourself is really just a waste of time..

Alcohol 120% (or even CloneCD) will be able to duplicate a CD/DVD with a simple copy protection, so there's no point wasting your time or money to code/buy one. However, if you want sophisticated copy protection on your product then that will be expensive - perhaps, so expensive that you actually won't be able to buy it.
