I have found this to be the case with some DVDs, but sometime 
encryption prevents the mounted image from working.  To make an image, 
use Disk Utility in the Applications/Utilities folder.

In a related vein, does anyone know if it's possible in any way to 
output an iDVD project to an image?  I don't have a SuperDrive and I'd 
love to be able to make a "DVD" and then burn it elsewhere.  Somehow I 
think this is not possible, though, and is wishful thinking :-)
