How to back up software DVDs?

[accented]

In PC-land, Nero allowed me to copy an entire CD/DVD. Now that I'm on a mac, I want to keep backups of the original software disks. None of the likely looking candidates on the web seem to do the job, so I'm thinking I'm missing something crucial. It CAN'T be as difficult as all that, can it? Can someone tell me how to copy a disk? Please?

Thanks.

You can do the same with your Mac provided the CD/DVD is not copy protected in some way and the governing EULA allows for a backup copy to be made.

I use "Burn" while in OS X (http://gsburn.sourceforge.net/) or I simply make the copy on my Win machine using Nero or Ashampoo.

Regards.

Thanks, Chscag. Much appreciated.

Just use the duplicate cd/dvd function in the latest "Toast Titanium" and it'll store all the info from the software disc into the cache, then eject the disc and then burn that cache to the blank media. I've tried it on Toast 8 Titanium and works for me. I've not used the latest version. 9? maybe. But it should work on there too. If as stated above the disc and eula allow you to do it.
