You really haven't got a clue have you, NLI are quite within their rights to
produce "non" copyable material, after all this is how they make a living
and every one copy that gets made comes straight out of the pocket of these
guys who not only do a great job producing this stuff but contribute highly
to this forum.
If the odour from paper offends you then may I point out that it is copyable
by using nothing more than a multifunction inkjet printer.
That however is not the point, these labs are great and if copying this
stuff gets out of hand NLI might just wrap in and call it a day. Then where
would you be. Imaging yourself 24 months from now, the CCIE has changed
dramatically and you are just beginning to study... One of your colleagues
tells you that there used to be a great company producing practice labs but
they went down the pan cause they couldn't sell enough to make a living dute
to pirate copies, so Son says your colleague "you are on your own". I wonder
what you would say then...
"Geez I wish these guys were still around I could do with a couple of
scenarios to brush up on my IPv6 summarisation..."
Just my two cents...

As a consumer we have our rights to a reliable, user friendly, and
risk-free product. The lady who got burned by a cup of McDonald (?) coffee
won millions fo dollars. Getting a safer electronic copy is the minimum we
are entitled to. I welcome your proposal and urge everyone of us make our
voice heard. And I believe NLI is smart enough to act on this.

And I will make electric copies of the material and send out over the
Internet.
Whoever is interested in it can email me and I am giving away the copies for
free.
...Until they stop doing this annoying non-capyable crab.
And to further the thought and fan the flames, I should be able to make
copies of printed material for myself if I purchased them. Just as I should
be able to make copies of CD's as a backup if I have purchased them.

Not a problem, just break out a high pixel digital camera, and a flat
bed document stand. Take a focused picture of each page, run it into
OCR package and print out the labs on regular paper. Problem solved.
Note - I'm not advocating stealing copied righted material. Just
pointing out that if you own the labs, that you could print them out on
regular paper.
Things like non-copyable paper just drive me nuts. Reminds me of not
being able to print out a screen shot off a DVD playing on my computer.
Oh yeah, can't do that, but I could run the VGA DVD feed to my second
computer that has a capture card. Smile.
I know I'm going to get flames from this email, please save them.
Nothing you say, can change the fact that non-copyable paper is
copyable. Which brings up the question of why go the trouble and
expense to of using it. It seems just to challenge people to break the
rules.
Like telling a teenager not to watch a tv show, or listen to a radio
station. It becomes a challenge for them to do what you just told them
not to do.
In the case of the teenager, it's much better to tell them that you like
that radio station. (a sure way of never hearing it played again).
Smile.
