bin & cue files...Mac trouble

I don't know how much pirating-based discussion is allowed
here, but the general problem is I downloaded some software
which comes as .bin and .cue files. I understand this is
something to do with separating files when the app is saved
off the CD, but I don't know what I should do because I
can't get anything to open. Will they work if I burn them
onto a CD together?

Interestingly, a really cool noise track plays if I open the
cue file in VLC Media Player.

Anyway, any form of help would be shockingly nice.

The .bin is the entire disc ripped to an image.. the .cue is
a little file with information about how to burn the bin,
like the data mode of the disc and stuff. I dunno which
programmes can do this on mac, though.

.bin is just a type of archive, the .dmg is a cd image

anyways you can usually open .bin files with stuffit, don't
know shit about .cue files though

You need the latest version of Toast Titanium (6.0.5).

That will combine the bin and cue files, and burn it to a
CD/DVD for you

How are you gentlemen. Yeah I aquired myself the latest
Toast Titanium, turns out I can mount the two files
togetheras if they were a CD. Thanks for the help and for
calling me nuts.
