CD Copying

CD Manipulator V2.70

The original CD Manipulator homepage has now gone, this version is a zip file that doesn't need installing.  Just extract the contents and run the exe file, this is the only place on the web I've found that still has this version for download.  This program is similar to clonecd

CD2ISO

CD2ISO is a simple tool to extract .iso images from your cd or dvd disk. It will read any drive as raw disk, so you can also use it to make a sector dump of a removable drive (cd, dvd or floppy).
Cd2iso works very straight-forward. It will dump raw sectors of a filesystem. You do not need any additional dll files.
You can use it to make iso dumps of a CD or DVD drive, and to verify the checksum of existing or just-burned disks.
