DVD Release Notes:

The Babylon Project DVD is in an ISO format. The ISO Format is a Disc Image containing the data to be written to disc.

Nearly all CD/DVD Burning software supports burning the ISO format to disc because it is a common format. However, if you are confused on how to burn an ISO to disc, I suggest using the "BurnAware Free" (freeware, contains no crap-ware) available at http://www.burnaware.com/burnaware_free.html

Alternately, you can mount the ISO in a virtual drive. You can download a Virtual Drive Program called "Virtual CloneDrive" (freeware, contains no crap-ware) available at http://www.slysoft.com/en/virtual-clonedrive.html

Finally, if you would prefer to extract the data from the ISO to a folder your hard drive, you can use ISOBuster (shareware, unlimited demo) available at http://www.isobuster.com/
