It could *STILL* be a GD-ROM thing...
The **COPY** that your friend "downloaded and burned" is going to be easy to make copies of, because it's on a standard CD-R disc. The CD-R discs generally top out at about 700mb (some are more but few drives support them).
A GD-ROM holds around 1 GB of data and as such, a good way to see if you have a GD-ROM is to insert the disc in your computer, load "My Computer" and right-click the drive with the disc. Choose "Properties". If it only shows to be a few meg in size (1 to 50+ MB) you're looking at a GD-ROM. All of your games should have at least 200 MB of data (most will be upwards of 400-650 mb or more).
If you see a very small quantity of data, you're looking at a GD-ROM and the method I described before (RIPPING) is required to make copies.
This is the **ONLY** method of "PROTECTION" that I've ever seen for Dreamcast, and it's very effective for the casual copier.
