    go to spotlight and type "disk utility"

    Insert a blank disc.
    Start Disk Utility.
    From the File menu, choose Open Disk Image and select the ISO to be burned.
    In the list of volumes, you will now see an item representing the ISO file. Select it.
    Click the Burn button and follow the instructions.

    This thread's going to get locked pretty quickly.

    Disk Utility is the way to go.

    Its fine, not all .iso's are illegal. Plenty of legit software and files packaged in .iso's

    Direct discussion of piracy on the other hand will not be tolerated.

    Or if the OP has Toast Titanium, that does it too and it's very easy. You just drag and drop the .iso file into the Toast window and Toast does the rest. :)

    Education on file formats is good me thinks...

    Disk utility is the best simple program I've come across for osx, free and works better than Burn too most times.
