This issue has been discussed earlier in vain. Have a look at

and also at http://www.cdrom-guide.com/ubb/Forum18/HTML/002348.html

How about modifying the TOC of the CD. I think Nero allows you to deliberately write a fake file size when the file is actually smaller. As long as the burning software knows the true size, this is OK. Also try 'TZCopyprotection v1.1Beta 9' at http://members.nbci.com/tzcopy/ but it's kinda messy stuff.

...and finally ...the bad news.. Programmes like 'Clone CD' or 'Blind read' etc. can still make a reliable copy of such copy protected CD's.

Best of luck.
