What are CUE and TOC files? What are they used for? It would be useful
if you say a little bit more about them.

Well i do not know if one can define CUE file shortly . This is like "ar"
file but for cdroms "images" (not in the iso meaning, the raw image).
This enables to store on disk what we want on the cdrom when we mix
different type of data type on the medium.
It could be a mix of iso9660, audio, video ...
Kudos to the one who manage to explain it in a sentence 
Well i may be plain wrong as this talk about TOC too which i though where
part of rockridge ...
This is obviously for disk at once burn. Won't be of any use for sao.

That looks much better. Mentioning CD/DVD makes quite a bit of
difference if you ask me.
