SecuROM Protected DVD - Halp!

[Vuitton]

I purchased from Yale University Press a DVD containing two years worth of the audio and video my Japanese program uses at Portland State University. It was fucking expensive for a little over 1gb worth of audio and visual files ($70), but it contains the last two years of the program, so it was a good investment. Anyway, I wanted to burn copies to give to my classmates for a "donation" of their choosing. $5 or whatever they want. A lot better than $70.

ANYWAY,

I copied the DVD at work today on one of our stand alone burners where you insert the master disc and it spits out a copy. It copied fine but it won't run due to SecuROM demanding the original disc be inserted. Not conducive to pawning off discs to fellow students since there is only one original disc.

The DVD is not something that is installed. Merely, an executable that runs a flash based GUI which organizes everything conveniently to be run off the disc. I am assuming the SecuROM is embedded in the .exe used to initialize the GUI. I did a straight copy of the disc contents to my HD, took out the disc and attempted to run the .exe from the HD, and it asked for the original disc.

Does anyone know how I can go about getting around this in a way that allows me to hand out copies to my classmates in a way they can easily access? HALP me BG, you're my only hope.

Thanks! I'll try this when I get home today and hope it works.
