I take it not many people keep upto date on copright protections such as boringloozer(u lie u lie)look on this site and whoa and behold unsafedisc 2 is out and daemon 2.47is out the first is a unpacker to create your own cracks very similar to the first unsafedisc.The second is a code that fills in the blanks that safedisc 2 puts onto your disc when you burn them.Info can be found on Daemon website for a detailed description of what safedisc2 does and how it can be fixed.Certain precautions can be taken when burning a cd to create a 1:1 copy.This is not bollocks its fact take time to study what people say and you too can do 1:1 copys of certain games(not all)that have safedisc 2 protection...Please Boringloozer get a twating life.
Interesting post mate.

I understand what you are trying to say but there are still a few errors ro your thoughts..

1. unsafedisc2 just creates a decrypted game.exe so that UNPERFECT copies will run.
2. Daemon tools is a fine program which EMULATES what most cd burners cannot reproduce about copy protections (and of course allow you to run images from your HD, rather than a cd). It does not however "fill in the blanks" as you put it. It merely emulates these if they are missing from the copy. So if your copy is not a perfect 1:1 copy, then it will not run without daemon in the background.
3. Playback - this is a new emulation program which works in a similar fashion to Daemon Tools and again, only helps you run an IMPERFECT copy (although it would appear with full SD2 emulation...which Daemon Tools is just about to do)

What we were talking about was creating a PERFECT copy which will run in any drive, without patching or emulation. There is NO program which can write these new sectors if your hardware is not up to the task.
So the problem still remains. If your burner cannot handle these "weak" sectors (many can't which is why Macrovision has spent a lot of time and money specially creating them) then you CANNOT burn a perfect 1:1 copy, only a copy which is IMPERFECT.
