Will CD/DVD duplicators duplicate copyrighted material?

0

The duplicators are just a computer with 2 or more CD/DVD drives, running the same sort of program that you might run on your PC. They will duplicate copyrighted disks, with no problem. IE, if you want to use one to break the law, the machine will let you. They will attempt to duplicate copy-protected disks, too, but might fail, depending on what method of copy protection is used. Eg, some copy protection schemes work by introducing errors into the disk so that parts of it can’t be read. Duplicators need to be able to read the entire disk.
