I'd guess that this looks like an old message so you've probably solved the
problem by now, but the good news is that it is very simple to copy DVDs
that aren't copy protected. They are just computer discs so all you have to
do is copy all the files from one disc to another. I've used ImgBurn to do
this for quite a few years and have used Plextools' comparison features
to check the integrity of the finished discs.
