my co-worker was showing this to me today, i guess the demo runs for 30 days? hmm...

 

[Evadman]

I love it. used it for a while.

 

[ThaGrandCow]

Hmmm, interesting.

I figured there'd be a program that did that eventually. No matter what kind of copy protection is on a game, a straight bit for bit copy still can't be beat.

CloneCD > Alcohol, you don't have to do anything at all.

 

[Maleficus]

CloneCD has gotten weird in the later versions though. It works less it seems to me :\

 

[Platypus]

Yeah, it's been around for a long time..

 

[AzNmAnJLH]

[Imported]

I find Alcohol 120% better/easier to use than CloneCD..

in all honesty, they are both good. choose your preference really.

I started a thread asking whether a copy of Alcohol that I had "acquired" was a virus in disguise but someone locked the thread - maybe it was locked by software.
Anyway, I gave up with that and I now run CloneCD and Daemon Tools so that my son can run his Disney CDs from the hard drive.

That's what CloneCD is for.

Clone CD won't do as much with the latest games. I couldn't backup splinter cell. However, i got Alcohol 120 and it backs up everything and acts as a virtual drive. It's the best out there right now as far as i'm concerned

I only have the downloadable version of CloneCD which is for 21 days trial. Daemon Tools is free to download and use (forever?). Alcohol 120 is chargeable.
I have found that Daemon Tools has a limit of 4 virtual cd drives; but then you can always unmount a particular (virtual) cd drive's image and mount another.

Alcohol 120% Burns all sorts of extentions e.g cue, bin, iso, and plenty more...does CloneCD do that?

 

[Mallow]

wow, I was in the dark about this kind of software... thanks

At what read time should your burner be at when coping a disk?

 

[Hubris]

Yeah, I just heard about this for the first time a couple days ago. Have it installed, but haven't had a chance to use it yet.

Wrong forum for this, but oh well.
