There are a lot of programmers out there who have a great program and need exposure to be able to sell it. So they offer a free version that doesn't have all the bells and whistles for free.

IsoBuster can help you make backup copies of DVDs and CDs. Yuo can get a diskimage and then record onto a new disc. Even works with Blue Ray. Save your originals from the abuse of scratches and whatnot. Back up all your media.
