counterfeit CDR copys of Original Jazz Classics

I am aware that this theme has been mentioned eralier on different forums, but I cant stop wondering is there something that can be done to stop such ripp off. From different sellers, on Amazon I have orderd and received brand new OJC editions, only to discover that inside is a worthless cdr copy. I guess there must be a source of suplie and somebody who stands behind  such bs.products. Can it be stopped? I came to a point that from every 5 cd's that I order I got 2 cdr copy and I have decided to stop ordering 'new' cds and even write to a seller before buying one, to check is the copy that I want the original one. Of courese that is quite time consuming and annoying.Anybody knows more about it?

Some vendors on Amazon do state that the disk is a CDR, but you must read the fine print.

Arkiv Music does have licensing from classical record labels to burn and sell CDRs.

I found a thread with the answer. Seems like the original masters are locked away in a third party facility.
Read the thread and follow the link within for the story.
