How do I put together bunch of mp3 (or wav) files into ISO without burning them onto a CD? I really want to manage my music files this way...

in nero you can choose to record to an image instead of the cd-rw drive

But this way you'll get an *.nrg CD-Image, not an ISO-Image. Maybe there's mkisofs for Windows available, or simply search with google for a freeware app that supports creation of ISO-Images. I can't imagine that you wouldn't fin one.

Google search "EasyIso". Pretty simple free program to do what you want. Hope this helps.

You mean one wav file + cue sheet?

EDIT: If I'm not mistaken there's no such thing as an audio-cd image like ISO-Images for data-cds!?

Another idea would be using FLAC 1.1.0. IIRC you can embed cue sheets into FLAC compressed files since version 1.1.0. This way you could save some space over uncompressed wav files and have everything in one file as opposed to one wav file + cue sheet.

ISO 9660 is the type of filesystem present on data CDs (I do not know if the extra error correction codes for data CDs is considered part of ISO 9660 or something else.) Audio CDs don't really have a filesystem at all, so you can't make an ISO image, unless you want a CD with a bunch of .wav files on it which won't play on a CD player. One big .wav or .flac with a cuesheet is the closest you'll get, except for CD burning programs that make an "image" file as others have mentioned.

...maybe you find a way for changing .nrg to iso with any software on the market.

WinISO reads .NRG, and writes .ISO, so I suppose it can also convert. Never tried it though

Alcohol 120% reads and writes a lot of image formats, but I'm at work now, so I don't have any chance to test it..... personally I would also go for some kind of single wav/ape/flac/(etc.) + cuesheet solution though.....

Nero 6 writes ISO, AFAIK. You can choose between NRG and ISO formats.

As for mkisofs, there's cygwin windows port available, an easiest way is to get BurnAtOnce (a frontend).

this is crazy, why do u want to decode mp3 to big wav?

try cue sheet
