Wonder if there's any more specific information on that?

Yes, they have some stuff there. I believe that's how the made special
"audio CD-R" format for standalone CD writers - required people to buy
way overpriced CD-Rs with a few bits different.

I don't really care about burning a copy of a game - more interesting
would be to actually be able to read one. Examine its binaries and
data. Maybe they have something on the disc equally silly as on PSP
UMD discs (two copies of the same game binary, one with encryption and
one without...), but that's not likely.
