I have been blogging for since january 2009 and had to learn

a lot of things through trial and error. I am currently

reading to your training blog and finding it to be very informative.

For anyone that is thinking of starting a training blog I highly recommend this is a good one.

The cue file has the associated .bin file.

There are several tools you can use, Nero and select “Recorder” then “Burn Image” and browse for the cue or bin file. You can open the image file in winiso and burn it directly from there. There are several products to choose from.

Thanks,
Admin
