How to hide stuff in CDs and DVDs

Many a times you might have wished certain stuff on your CDs and DVDs were private and accessible only to you and no one else. While you could achieve this using WinRAR or any other archiving software that can encrypt your data, it doesn't allow for quick access to the data as you need to decrypt and extract the stuff first. While this might not be much of a problem for a small amount of data, you might get into trouble when you’ve got gigabytes of ones and zeroes to hide. Now I know that for all legitimate purposes your stash of hidden data would never really get this extensive, but the keyword here is ‘legit’. What about the skeletons in your closet? (Read: porn) They need to go somewhere too, right? And you need a much larger cache for them.

Your processor wouldn't be so happy about it.
