Explore a disk image without burning a disk

In emulation

Free software DAEMON Tools allows you to mount nearly any CD or DVD image as though you'd already burned the disc.

DAEMON Tools is a virtual cd/dvd-rom emulator. It is able to emulate nearly all known copy protections on the market today.

A tool like DAEMON Tools can come in handy if you've backed up a lot of your CD or DVD-ROMs as ISOs. It can also come in handy to explore a disk image before burning it.
