It offers the possibility of converting between ISO and CUE/BIN and their proprietary Universal Image Format disc image format.
In addition to being able to edit the contents of the disc images without decompressing, it can make a disc image from an existing CD/DVD-ROM. Also, it can make bootable image files (file extension .bif). MagicISO can mount disc images with the addition of MagicISO Virtual CD/DVD Manager.
The trial version cannot handle disc images larger than 300 MB. MagicISO is currently produced by MagicISO, Inc. The Company's domain name is registered to an address in Shanghai, China.

Universal Image Format
Universal Image Format or UIF is a proprietary disc image format for CDs and DVDs designed for MagicISO. Compared to the widespread simpler image formats like .iso and .bin, UIF adds compression, password-protected encryption, MD5 checksums and multi-session images.[4]
MagicDisc
MagicDisc, sometimes known as MagicISO Virtual CD/DVD Manager is a freeware virtual drive counterpart to MagicISO. It is a separate download needed to mount discs virtually. MagicDisc can also decompress UIF images to ISO format.[5]
Unlike MagicISO, MagicDisc does not have support for .daa files that were produced by PowerISO.
