📜 The Historical Journey of Mac Disc Tools

🏛️ The Classic Mac OS Era (OS 9 and Earlier)

Simple Times: Basic file copying was sufficient for most disc backup needs
Limited Protection: Early DVDs had minimal copy protection schemes
Direct Access: Operating system provided low-level hardware access
No Metadata Complexity: Simpler file system with fewer metadata considerations

⚡ The OS X Revolution (2001-2016)

OS X introduced complexity: Modern security, metadata handling, and sophisticated protection schemes changed everything.

🔧 New Challenges

HFS+ Metadata: Extended attributes, resource forks, and rich file information
Protection Evolution: CSS, ARccOS, and region codes became standard
Hardware Abstraction: Reduced direct hardware access for security
Permission Models: Complex user permissions and system integrity

🛠️ Traditional Tool Limitations

Apple's Disk Utility: Limited to unprotected media, no commercial DVD support
Command-Line Tools: cp, ditto, rsync - metadata aware but protection-blind
Third-Party Solutions: Fragmented market with inconsistent results
ASR (Apple Software Restore): System-focused, not media-oriented

🚀 The Modern macOS Era (2016-Present)

Today's environment demands sophisticated solutions: APFS, System Integrity Protection, and advanced disc protection require professional tools.
