An optical data writing method according to the present invention is designed to write user data optically on an optical disk by dividing the user data into a number of blocks, each being made up of a plurality of sectors, and by adding an error correction code to each block. The method includes the steps of: writing a first set of data, including data representing a first content, on a track on the optical disk; and writing a second set of data, including data representing a second content, onto the track such that an unrecorded area, where no data is stored, is left between respective areas where the first and second sets of data have been written.

An optical disc using a single-spiral land and groove track format enabling accurate tracking offset correction and reliable detection of the transition point between a land track and a groove track, and a driving apparatus therefor, are disclosed. Four physical address areas PID1, PID2, PID3, and PID4 are recorded to a header area such that PID1 and PID2 are offset one-half track pitch toward the outside circumference of the disc from the groove track center, and PID3 and PID4 are offset one-half track pitch toward the inside circumference of the disc from the groove track center, and the physical address areas PID1 - PID4 can be detected by means of a difference signal in the radial direction. The single frequency pattern area VFO at the beginning of each PID is lengthened by PID1 and PID3, thereby enabling tracking offset correction using a sum signal, and detection of the land-groove transition point using a difference signal obtained from the PID offset. The frequency of the VFO pattern may be set lower than the highest frequency of the channel bit sequences of the modulation method used on the disc. Address marks may employ a channel bit pattern which includes two sequenses which are longer than the longest mark length of the modulation method.

An optical disk includes a land and a groove. On this optical disk, data is recorded on both the land and the groove. A distance between the center of the land and the center of the groove adjacent to the land is 0.28 µm or more. The optical disk has a data efficiency of 80% or more. Thus, an optical disk having a storage capacity of 25 GB or more can be provided.

An optical disk, and a method and apparatus for reproducing and/or recording data to the disk are provided for preventing illegal copying of authorized disks recording copyrighted digital content. The optical disk 10 has a control area 12 for storing control data, a data area 14 for storing main digital data (content), and an identification area 13 for storing sub-digital data specific to the main digital data. The sub-digital data is recorded as a pit sequence (R1, R3, R5) at a locally phase modulated clock timing. When disk identification data is recorded as the sub-digital data, key information stored to the reproduction apparatus is compared with identification data (sub-digital data) detected from jitter fluctuations in the identification area 13 when content is reproduced from the optical disk 10. If a specific correlation is thus confirmed, the disk is recognized as a legally copied disk and reproduction is enabled. Illegal copies can thus be prevented.

With the disc-shaped recording medium, or the disc manufacturing method according to the present invention, for both the single-layer disc and the multi-layer disc, a recording layer L 0 , which is to be the first layer, is at the same distance, along the direction of disc thickness, from the surface of the cover layer CVLs on which falls the laser light. For the multi-layer disc, the second layer L 1 and the following layer(s) are formed at the locations which are closer to the cover layer CVLs than the first layer L 0 . Management information may be recorded by mobbling grooves, each layermay have tert areas, defect information, a replacement area. Thus, it is possible to improve compatibility, reliability and accessibility between a single-layer disc and a multi-layer disc. The spherical aberration for the recording/reproducing light may be controlled with respect to the selected layer.
