What is DAA?

DAA means Direct Access Archives and can be considered as a CD or DVD image which is quite similar to ISO files. It is a proprietary file format for the disk image used by PowerISO to archive large ISO files or support more advanced features of compression, splitting to multiple volumes and password protection features. ISO is the disk image format that allows you to burn disks using burning software such as Nero.
