Can I get the type of copy protection on a CD/DVD in C#?

I know there are several tools out there that can detect the type of CD/DVD protection. Is there a library or code sample that will help me get this information in C#?

CD and DVD copyright protection methods are very different. As far as I know, only DVD has any standardized copyright protection mechanism; the DVD_COPYRIGHT_DESCRIPTOR structure and related API might be helpful.

(You may end up needing to send commands directly to the DVD drive, since Windows doesn't support every feature a drive supports. Take a look at my C# SCSI Library if you need to do that, and let me know if you need features that aren't implemented yet. :) )
