you mean un-copyable? technically you can't. what's on it? some major program you want to distribute? time to add in some anti-cracking utils...activation codes, limited trials, registry editing, writing files to the system folder under obscure names, etc.
>>technically you can't
There are some tricky things you can do to beat the software that copies though. But then they come out with better software...
I have some games (like Ground Control or Worms Armageddon II) that me and my friends had been trying to burn... and no go. We think that they have audio tracks at the beginning of the disk that make the software burn it like a cd. For some reason, it doesn't work. It is pretty tricky... whatever they did. I actually purchase my games to support game writers, so I have nothing to worry about anyway, unless my cd gets scratched... (which is why I have backups of all of my games that do burn).

hmmm... yeah... technological race...
speaking of which, i borrowed a 750 meg disk i wanted to burn a copy of... and we only had the 650s... which dawned me in sucky fashion...
oh, and M$ windows 3 1/2 disks were like, 2.88 meg formatted, or wait... 1.6 or something... and my pop had to get some special formatting utility to make copies... ti was weird...

Take a paper clip; straighten it out; drag it across the recorded
side of the cd. Voilla!! Instant copy protection. No charge for
this information.

No. Wait. Don't hang up!
This is America calling!
Your short changing yourself rick, that info is worth at least $800 bucks. Now you have to do some strategic consulting, like how he should drag the paper clip....
