From the Where2sing.com forum:

All disc have a code that is monogramed near the core hole.This is normally the model number of the disc and is what the inspectors look for. That is if the inspectors even do check and that is rare. Other thing Kititude has also pointed out. Some time the break up on the screen is due to a player needing a service but yes copy disc also break up. Any one that goes to a show knowing the the host uses copy disc should stop doing so a tell the pub mananger at the least.The pub or club is a risk of large fines and so is the host if copy disc are used.there are host out there that do shows for about 150.00 and screw up the industry by doing so.
Some have huge song list or use lap tops with down loaded song off the net and claim to be legal. some I have my doubts.
some handy numbers report to are..Music Industry Piracy investigations www.mipi.com.au 02 85691177 or APRA?AMCOS www.apra.com.au 02 99357900 or PPCA www.ppca.com.au 02 85691111or Australian Copyright council www.copyright.org.au
