Are you 100% sure about this?

He meant that the DATA side is gold, not the disc art. Look at the DATA side of the disc to see if it has a gold hue to it.

I wouldn't do that until I was 100% sure that it is a bootleg.
Mermaid Kelly wrote:but any idea what to do about getting another one? I don't want another fake one! Well I guess I have two choices...since it plays fine, I can keep the one I have and eventually buy the platinum, or I can try to get another one. I don't know, anyone have a suggestion?
Yes, I DO have a suggestion to test whether your disc is a bootleg, or not.
Download DVD Decrypter, version 3.1.7.0:

Run the program with your DVD in the DVD-ROM drive of your computer. The program will tell you what region code the disc is. If it is more than Regions 1 and 4, chances are it's a bootleg. The Taiwanese bootleggers NEVER region code their DVDs. You might also wish to decrypt the DVD. If the program tells you that the disc isn unencrypted, then for sure it's a bootleg. The Taiwanese bootleggers also NEVER CSS-encrypt their DVDs.
Mermaid Kelly wrote:oh yea and to answer your first question, it has an insert...a fake insert

How do you know that it's a fake? ALL Taiwanese bootleg DVDs that I have come across NEVER have an insert at all. Since yours has an insert, there's still hope that it's a legitimate Disney release.
Alternatively, you can send the disc to me, and I will analyze it pretty exhaustively and give you my professional opinion regarding its authenticity. Luke can vouch for my trustworthiness.
Good luck.
