| Sorry, but I think, this copy protection bit stuff (actually two bits, I

There is a bit that can be set to mark that it shouldn't be copied,
but it is up to the copying hardware/software/user to honor that bit.
There are cases where it can be validly ignored (I'm no lawyer, so
don't ask me). The drive doesn't enforce anything though.
