Uh, it's possible it was still active. When I loaded the DVD, it
automatically starts the DVD Player, which I thought I shut down when
I opened up the Disk Utility, however I might not have actually quit
it. I'll have to check that out.

Um, basic question. Was DVD Player running? You have to make sure
nothing else could be using the DVD. So, if DVD player was running,
it might prevent Disk Utility from getting complete access to it.

That's good info ... I happen to be on a Mac G5, which plays the
DVD fine. I tried my version of Toast Titanium (5.2) and when
asked to copy, it just said it couldn't because Files needed to be
unmounted. Well, it's not critical to have a copy of this DVD, it
would just be nice .... so I'm not about to slash wrists over it
or anything ...
Thanks for the help.

If it's something you desperately need, check in person with
someone with
experience on a Windows PC. There are lots of good utilities for
copying
those DVDs that run into trouble on generic operating system
installs, with
all the convoluted DVD protection schemes. I just love that DVD
Region
Killer application. :)
Some ideas:
1. Sonic MyDVD is supposed to copy DVDs from standalones.
2. Double-check that your DVD player reads the format. Some units
do not
read DVD+R.
3. The DVD might not be closed (standalone boxes can do that, and
many DVD
players don't care). Close the DVD using your burning
application, and then
see if it reads correctly.
4. See this thread on how to copy these using a PC:
