Seems to me you have some (good) ideas, but I at least agree with podunkviller for one thing: you jump for one to the other with a little lake of logic. (regarding the note, I'm not at school anymore, maybe you're not also)
Confronting your ideas with the reality, you're discribing what is Starforce, and a few part of Tagès - as SW (HW is another matter...). But you want to forget that when a CD is pressed, nothing can be written anymore today. I'm not sure it will make an economic sense to set up another technologie just to write on a part of a pressed CD (I'm not sure, but I think Kodak have already done something similar), as you can write in many other place easily (HD, smart card, server...). Just combine it with your "dataspace" - what I call "protected zone" - and this is it!
Anyway, this is definitely not SafeDisk nore Securom : those protection are ony "press button", and as it is an automatic proccess for the editor or the CD manufacturer, it is also automatic for the hackers : UnSafedisk, Unsecurom
Regarding legal issues, I'm not interressed : as far as CD is concern, almost every one lose sense! (If I broke a glass, I will not file the manufacturer of the glass, and I will not complain to the seller of the glass for a brand new one, I will just buy some if I don't have anymore. A CD is not a fressbie, but it can be a scarecrow)
