Well, you can try overburning. If that fails, let me know and we'll explore
other venues...

Many files that you downl....er...buy, are over the 700mb threashold, but when you go to burn them the they always fit. Dunno why, maybe they contain a fair bit of instructions for the burning process. At least thats how the cue/bin files seem to work. If its a music cd, them you might need to remove a song or two.

You can try breaking it down into RAR files. Like put 350MB on 1 CD, and 350MB on another.

Or split it with File Splitter.

Nice tool, also for people who don't need it at this moment. Splits files into any size you like.

They exist, but are not compatible with all CD players/writers.
