Can I copy a CD-G?

We have a collection of karaoke CD-Gs which gets an airing every so often. The christmas ones are out again, and I'm worried about the kids and their friends messing them up.
I was wondering if I could successfully copy these if I had access to a DVD rewriter? Can anyone advise?

Thanks in advance.

    Interesting.... Can you actually play these on your computer in the first place?

    "If your CD-ROM drive doesn't support this
    feature, you're out of luck. If the *Driver* software that is used to
    control your CD-ROM drive doesn't support this feature, you are also out of luck, although less so, since you might be able to write a new
    driver, or obtain a new one. Good luck."


    If it does, I would try using; http://www.alcohol-soft.com/

    The big problem with CD-G is having hardware that will read the disk in the first place and then having the hardware that will write the disk. if you have those 2 in place then just do a disk copy as sugested use alcohol 1205 for all your disk copying needs.
