Sorry for being so dense, everybody, but I still don't get the answer to my
original question--why make a disc image in the first place? You have your
project, you burn a DVD, you put your project away (in your internal drive,
external drive, or burned to a DVD), and it's waiting there for you next
time you want to burn another disc. What's the purpose of taking the extra
step of making a disc image?

Am I missing something obvious here?
