   Yes you could copy the original.. Each disk was done by hand because after   
   duplication I found out that the sync lengths were not as the originals and   
   did not boot because it thought it was a copy. So spent the next 2 days and   
   nights fixing this problem    
   by hand. Should have duplicated the disks in house but to make it more   
   reliable we used a professional duplicator. I can tell you that after the   
   100th disk and not sleeping almost 2 days.. I wanted to say I did but didnt if   
   you know what I mean but    
   thought I was supposed to make some money off it.. But his check bounced so no   
   updates and released V3 to PD which was basically just a souped up file   
   copier..   
      
   To copy it, you have to make sure the sync length is as per original.. There   
   is no other protection..
