Hi guys,

If I had an .iso, I could extract it and burn it no worries.

So why would I need to make a 'cue' file in notepad, and not extract it and just select the 'cue' file in Nero to burn.

It's all very confusing and I'm very confused!

Any help would be greatly appreciated! :D

Bin and ISO files are different. I can't remember the whole reasoning but it's got something to do with header information and byte structuring if memory recalls.

CDRDAO, DIscJuggler & FireBurner can all burn .bin files without a cue sheet though ;)

Yes depends on program, ie Fireburner needs a cue sheet.
They are easy to make.

Look at my signature, and click on the iso and bin tutorial. You'll see a link to my burning tutorial. All is expained in there.
