    The Bin/Cue combination is a CD image file (similar idea as an ISO, if you've ever dealt with that). It's probably a VCD(SVCD) or something like that. You can do one of two things. You can burn it using something like Nero Burning Rom (but it's probably too big for one cdr, if you have a DVD burner with blank DVD media, thats a different story), or you can mount the bin/cue using a virtual drive of some kind (Daemon tools, is what I recommend; along with the Daemount frontend).

    In any case, you'll be mounting, or burning the "cue" file.
    You can't triple stamp a double stamp.

    /me is looking forward to wonderboy2005s guide!

    .sfv is a hashcheck file. Once you have finished uploading, just delete it.

    In any case, you'll be mounting, or burning the "cue" file.
    Perhaps it is clearer to say that the .cue file tells your chosen program how to mount or burn the .bin file.
    I'm not really malicious. I'm a nice guy.

    If all you are going to do is check its quality or wathc it on your computer then don't bother downloading codecs or burning it to disc or anything as silly as that. Just download Videolan player and have it open the .bin file.
