CD Image is a 1:1 copy of a CD made on Your HDD (in one - *.iso, two *.bin + *.cue or even three files - Clone CD's images...) Once You burn this image on a CD it's no longer an image.
Images are made usually to backup data.
:bye:
Different formats are for different things, as ISO for example does not support multi-track CDs.

There is also another reason to have a images instead of CD: easy access.

Programs such as Alcohol120% & DaemonTools will enable you to have virtual CD drives, where you can mount images, and access them like they are real CD roms. (in other words, you can have multiple CDs in the computer that phisicaly does not have one)
