Copying Navigation CD

Just got new NAV CD's. In the past I made a copy to use in the car (protect the original from heat, abuse, etc.). The new 2004 version won't copy using Nero6. Many bad sectors. Tried BlindWrite 5 automatic setting, didn't work. Am going to try BlindWrite with bad sector profile next. Any experience with this? Any tips? Can't believe they'd copy protect this, not exactly a Metallica CD.

I have Roxio EZ CD Creator and it worked like a charm. Now my 'G' has discs too!

Does MB update the CD under warranty? I've got a 2003 SL55 but the info seems dated.
