    Like myself, some people here wondered how to open Bin-Cue packaged files on a Mac. Up till now, I had to move over to a Windows VM to do the job. Cumbersome..
    Until I stumbled on Daemon tools.. for Mac!
    I didn't know it even existed (thought it was Win only). But it does, and it works!

    So this post is to inform all OdioSeXists there's a simple affordable option to open Bin Cue on Mac, for 7 bucks.

    Thanks mate,
    another freeware option (command line):

    I use this one and works great. Try always just to rename the .bin to .iso, many times just work. *yes*

    Thanks for those options folks!

    Another option is to mount the .bin with Toast. I've used Toast for mounting .bin files with no problems.

    Toast costs some cash - however, like most software it can be found for free. Plus I find it to be a very useful tool for burning/archiving DVD's and audio CD's. Yes, I know there are other free alternatives to Toast for achieving the same thing like "Burn" for example.

    You can also convert it to an ISO file:
    AnyToISO
