    You don't HAVE to get cdrecord, you just have to know which setting on your
    burning software to use. Depending on the software, what you're looking for
    is an option to Burn a CD "image" (That's the key word there). It will then
    usually ask for a .iso file or something like that. That will then burn the
    CD properly. (Sorry can't be more specific without knowing which burning
    software you're using)
