how do i burn iso's of cd software that i already have?

[kermalou]

i have a boatload of cd's that i dont want anymore and a computer that can store them, but i want to be able to install them from that computer making it like a cd storage device, what can i use?

You mean create ISOs?

I've only used Nero's demo to do that, there should be a .pdf on their site that explains how to create an ISO with Nero.

Ah, a CD image server. Those are excellent things to have, if you've got the capacity. 🙂

Use something that can read subcode off the CD. Blindread/write suite is the best choice. Then use Daemon-Tools on the client PCs to mount the images.

i use nero and daemon-tools -- works wonderfully

I've heard good things about blindread/blindwrite, but haven't personally tried them.

Tried that - it had issues with protected discs.

i'd prolly be really lazy and just use Alcohol. Alcohol rips images into its own proprietary format. But if it's just for your use, then i don't see the problem.

but the best bet for ISO is Blind Read

I've had the best luck with the Alcohol 120%/Daemon-Tools combo.
