I am currently trying to backup my PS game collection and most of my collection consists of multi disk rpgs. In otherwords I have a lot of ISOs to make and I want to make sure I'm making the best.
Please just dont name a program explain why you like or dislike it. Otherwise all I would get is opinions and no facts.

BlindRead. It handles damaged CDs quite well I find, and it can readsubchannels.

i always use DiscDump for data CD's, because it's simple, but effective, produces 100% ISO9660 images, and reads in RAW mode (1:1 dump).

well the specific reason is, that clonecd make the image file, the cue sheet, sub files etc. and in winiso you can of course make an .iso image + convert the image files to iso or bin and stuff like that, and read the contents of the image (the files, directories etc.) :)

well I don't think you'll be able to copy it if it's all scracthed but you owuld give it a try, and btw the .iso image isn't located on the psx cd it is the image of the WHOLE cd, it's something like a BIG .zip file and you have to create the iso image yourself with a prog mentioned earlier :)

Nero. Even my cat can make backup PSX CDs using it.

yeah nero, but I had problems with the images created by nero, when I try to run them I only get a black screen so thats why I turned over to clonecd :)

If green squares flash in a certain part of a movie is that a bad iso problem or something else?

Im a fan of isobuster and nero. Mainly for ease of use and the nearly perfect success rate. What iddues I had were all with nero.
