Why does a double disc CD count as two CDs on the charts if only one copy was sold?

I think this might be in reference to other countries (primarily the United Kingdom) that releases multiple versions of the same single to boost sales and chart positions. For instance, any record label could release four B-sides on one CD and give the fans a great value, but they eventually caught onto this certain glitch that they could possibly split up those B-sides (many singles dropped from five songs to four songs to the very common two or three songs that we know today). This created the CD1 and CD2 philosophy. Your average dedicated fan will see both discs and feel the need to get both of them to complete their collection. For the record companies, that means double the profits and double the units sold (therefore creating an inflated number of fans of one particular song). For the stray folks who may just be getting into the band, they might opt for a single that has another song they know (possibly as a live, acoustic, or remix version) as a B-side. Often a label will put a sticker on the packaging denoting a different track that Customer X might like. These are the people that aren't the guaranteed 1/2 combo, so if they can get them to buy one for thinking they like two of the songs on the disc, at least they can get one more unit sold. It's an awful business!

What is the taken digital copy code?
I believe that each disc has it's own copy code which would've been included in the disc case. If you bought it new and did not get a code you should either return the disc or contact Fox. If you bought it used you need to talk to the seller. The previous owner may have "used up" the digital copy.

There are many jurisdictions which have variations on copyright laws but in general, the following applies: Unless you have express permission from the copyright holder (the publisher of the disc) then no, you cannot legally make a copy of a disc. In some jurisdictions, you have an implied permission to make a back up copy if you own the disc but there is no legitimate reason to copy a disc that is not your property. This applies whether you intend to distribute or sell the disc, use it yourself or even never use it. If you are caught, penalties can vary from the copyright owner demanding damages to a criminal conviction.
