For copy protection, DVD-Audio usesContent Protection for Prerecorded Media (CPPM). To this day (July 2007), no method has been found to remove watermarks from DVD-Audio stream, so creating duplicate discs is not really possible. However, it's copy protection was overcome in 2005, with methods to copy the audio without a lossy digital-to-analogue conversion.
