alcohol all the way!
things i like about alcohol 120%
1. u can backup your own games
2. daemon tools don't have right click to image files and mount, alcohol has that and it's very very very handy! small thing but very handy!
3. better interface
4. u can burn your images to cd/dvd's...

the thing is i use all the functions in alcohol i like it, daemon tools is just dull..

by the way u should add blindwrite, clonedvd, clonecd etc..
deamon & alcohol are very alike in software..

I prefer Daemon Tools because i can easily mount images by double clicking on the file or by right clicking on one. I use this cmd file taken from the registering extensions unattended thread by simonsays.

open notepad paste the following code and save as "DaemonTools.cmd" and run it by double clicking on it after you install the program.

or just download it here :) DaemonTools.cmd

Alcohol120 does this also, without kludges...all that is needed is to associate it with the desired files.

It can also be used to rip, burn, etc. Comparing Alcohol120 to D-Tools is comparing apples to oranges.
