Making a copy of a language disc...

[sandyRoe]

I have a Rosetta Stone language disc which I've promised to lend to a niece. Anything lent has a habit of getting lost in our family. Is it possible for me to make a copy of this disc?

[piggynose]

isn´t this breaching the copyrite?

[sandyRoe]

Errr...yes. I suppose it is.
So, how do I go about breaching the copyright?

Irrespective of whether you can do this technically, are you absolutely certain that you are permitted to lend the application to other people? I have several language courses on CD (not Rosetta Stone) and all of them expressly forbid this in their licence agreement...

[sandyRoe]

What they don't know won't hurt them. Can it be done, or no?

You can make a copy for your car that inadvertently finds it's way to your neice :)

What cd burning program do you use?

[sandyRoe]

I'm a bit of a novice as far as copying stuff is concerned. I just use Real Player. If someone, other than myself, had the knowledge could it be done?

[tamborine]

Open the CD at my computer. Either right click 'copy to CD' or create a new folder & drag the CD files into it. Copy the new files (not the folder) to a blank CD

6y olds are v. good on PCs :)

Rosetta Stone employ a pretty powerful copy protections system. Tambo's advice won't work. Even most of the cracks that claim to work on Rosetta Stone, don't.
