20100284253OPTICAL DISC, PLAYBACK APPARATUS FOR OPTICAL DISC, AND APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING OPTICAL DISC - On an optical disc, main information to be decrypted using sub information is recorded by arranging concave or convex recording marks in a spiral track and a reflective film is formed on the recording marks. First sub information is recorded as being superimposed on the main information by shifting or deforming the recording marks or altering a pattern of the recording marks. Second sub information is recorded as being superimposed on the main information by changing a reflectivity of the reflective film formed on the recording marks. The first sub information and the second sub information are recorded in an area from which the first sub information and the second sub information are to be read simultaneously. The second sub information is recorded in a manner that the second sub information is associated with the first sub information. The first sub information and the second sub information are associated with each other, and improve resistance to unauthorized copying by prohibiting content information from being read unless both the first sub information and the second sub information are read. The first sub information and the second sub information are recorded in the same area, and prevent the time taken for reading sub information from increasing.11-11-2010
