700MB Cannot be all there is available...Follow

hello,

i'm trying to burn an image on to a disc, when done the file is 708MB. the largest disc i've seen for sale is a 700MB (what i have at home), does anyone know if they sell bigger discs that are CD format? i do not have a dvd-r drive unfortunately.

in case there isn't a larger disc, i'm burning with nero 6, is there a program that is better for burning images; that could possibly archive the image a bit so it fits on a disc?


thank you for your response ahead of time.

Yea, go DVD-R. Check prices on pricewatch.com. I believe they are running aroung $50 for a cheap one.

Nero WILL overburn, but I don't advise it. That's why I didn't mention it before. Some CD burners aren't built quite right for overburning and can become physically damaged when you do so.

It's much easier to get a DVD burner and deal with the 4.7gb limit.

I'd just look for overburn capability on the hardware you currently have. No sense throwing cash at the problem until you know for sure if you need to. Also, is a DVD-R even going to be read by whatever drive you want to read the new CD image anyway?
