  As long as the original DVD falls within the 4.7 GB range, you can 
copy the DVD provided you rip the scrambling off. I know that there are 
dual layered media and burners now but I haven't tried any of those yet.

Also, most distributors (Columbia, Anchor Bay, Rhino, etc...) will 
replace damaged discs.  All you have to do is ask.  Most will send you a 
mailer, some will request the disc first.
