RE: Can an ISO burn itself?
The idea is put a program on the iso/cd that copies the cd it is on when run.

It could also, umm..., 'isoify' the cd it is on.

you're aware that cd burning software has the ability to copy from one disk to another, right?

lol, most sensible reply in this thread...

I don't get why you need an iso of the cd on the cd to copy the cd.

For starters, this is even logically impossible. Say your music is X and the iso is Y. This means that the iso Y = X + Y... Do the math... So the CD would contain X + X + X + X + X + ... + X (until eternity or until you drop dead, whichever comes first :p) + Y (doh! this equals X+Y again :D). etc...

But even if it was possible to do this. You also would always have the first track on the audio cd being a data track... not very 'userfriendly'.

And as Shawnz has put, and some others, what's wrong in simply copying a CD one to one? Almost all computers of today come with burning software. And even if they aren't, burning a CD is by default possible in even Windows XP.

If you want to make something special, make a properly burned (and this does not mean burning on 999x speed, but on 2x speed or whatever your burner supports as lowest speed!!!) cd with "CD Text" and possibly an attached image, aka making it a "CD+G" so a logo or whatever is shown in CD+G compatible players also.

if they didn't, you couldn't burn an ISO anyway, which is why i don't see a point to this discussion whatsoever
