question, can you copy a cd that you burned yourself? For example, if you created an Ubuntu 8.10 LiveCD, can you make a copy of that? I'd like to determin if we're dealing with a copy protection issue, or a software/hardware issue...

No I tried to make a data cd from my music folder not coping cd to cd
I also created a .odt file and tried to copy it but I get the same issue

It is not a matter of copy protection of course

Thanks you very much Gnome Baker Created it successfully!

Thanks Bhavani Shankar, that solved my question.
