FYI:
But, how do they power it?
>From <http://www.doc-witness.com/>
An OPSECURE PROTECTED CD looks like a
regular CD but contains a smart card and
optical input-output system...
An OpSecure protected media does not
only reflect stamped or burnt information
but can also RECEIVE, STORE, PROCESS,
and TRANSMIT INFORMATION....
It is impracticable to
crack since it is hardware based and is
based on dynamic protection
Also mentioned but no further insight:
