Found it. Made a copy. PM me with your address and I'll get it on its way tomorrow.
Had to go about making the copy in a round about way. Tried with Toast 9 Titanium, but that just sat there with the spinning beach ball, so I tried via the Finder with the same result. I then copied the DVD to the desktop and then burned the contents of that folder to the DVD. There is more than one way to skin a cat!
I then copied the DVD to the desktop and then burned the contents of that folder to the DVD.
I doubt that will be bootable. Even if you were able to get the invisible contents of the DVD burned, the boot blocks won't be right.
You need to use Disk Utility to make a DVD/CD master image first, .cdr, then burn that image to DVD with Disk Utility, Toast won't make a bootable DVD. Choose the icon of the original down and to the right in Disk Utility as the source.
Also, to keep things above board here, technically that's only legal to do for a backup copy for yourself, even if Apple's pricing is a total rip-off. Now if you were to sell or give him the original DVD, if it's not software you later upgraded from (it's not) that is okay.

I've made bootable copies with Toast before. I can't test this DVD since Tiger won't install on my Mini with 10.6.2 installed. I'll try the DU method, then. I know that it's technically not kosher, but Apple is making a bunch more money than any of us.

Toast 10 absolutely will make a bootable copy of Tiger, I just did it a few weeks ago for a guy here locally. I PM'd Droog about it, but I guess he's not interested.
