Abstract: A high-density optical disc, a method for encrypting data and recording the encrypted data thereon, and a method for reproducing the encrypted data recorded thereon. Data recorded on a high-density optical disc such as a Blu-ray disc-read only memory (BD-ROM) is recorded in a discontinuous recording format as on a high-density rewritable optical disc such as a Blu-ray disc rewritable (BD-RE). Data can be encrypted and recorded using synchronous data, address unit number (AUN) information or disc radius information recorded in the high-density optical disc. An optical disc apparatus such as a BD-ROM player can maintain reproduction compatibility with the high-density rewritable optical disc such as the BD-RE. A user holding an optical disc apparatus such as a BD-RE recorder, etc. can be prevented from unlawfully copying data recorded on the high-density optical disc and reproducing the copied data.

Therefore, the apparatus and method can simplify an algorithm for controlling a plurality of tracking servo operations, and avoid an increased size of the optical disc apparatus.
