CDRWIN (30 day 1x version - I've owned this for years)

It seems to have worked.  However, I couldn't figure out how to just copy >files
to a CD using CDRWIN, so I used the "File Backup and Tools" window.  I guess I
now have a CD with an image of the file I copied (DivX movie--The Rock, >690MB).
I was able to grab the image back off of the CD, but I don't know how to
extract the file from the image.  I also grabbed the demo version of

CDRWIN isn't the most user-friendly program in the world, and it really

I've only used Nero once or twice.

When I need to copy a CD I use CDRWin.  When I want to create a CD with
random files on it I use Easy CD Creator from Adaptec.
