No problems - Diskcopy is a very handy utility, I have recently left windows
behind and am amazed when the system utilities that actually do something
useful...
As for OS X asking if you want a disk prepared, this is the Discburning app
jumping up and trying to help you out.
As with Toast preview is OSX, you get everything ready to go, select the
image etc and then click burn image. It will then ask for a disc and pop
out the tray on the cd burner. Give it a biscuit (disc) and it will verify
it is ok (empty) and then click burn to set off...
