Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I have a friend who wants to be able to make ISO copies of a number of protected software DVDs so that they can be used for reference (by the owner, but it's not like software tends to care about that) without having too switch disks between lookups.

Well, I guess it doesn't have to be ISO--is there any other way that can be handled? Platform is a PC.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

You could try poking around videohelp.com [link] for software to create the ISOs. I've been using Daemon Tools [link] to mount disk images. It seems to work pretty well. Depending on what copy protection is on the DVDs, you may also need to look around for cracks (although some are already built into Daemon Tools).

Thanks, DX. I've passed that DaemonTools link on (what a weird website), since it sounds like what they need.

I\'m suspicious of any website where the userid of the administrator is LocutusofBorg.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

OK

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe....

Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I-beams glittering in the dark at Tannhauser gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in the rain.

Time to die.
