The annoying part of .ccd files is the lack of support in the specifications for DPM data. It was officially used just for some old Karaoke machines and VDJing mixers, but more importantly for retrogaming aficionados, it was used by SecuROM and Starforce copy protections.

Can't think of an open format with support for that, IIRC not even CHD files store them.

MDF/MDS isn't open, but could possibly be reverse-engineered enough to read the DPMS data.
