Burnz is a cool tool. I use it, and payed for it even. Much, much more
efficient for burning disc images than Disk Utility, and I generally burn
images.
Burnz, in this case, creates a hybrid disc, one with HFS+ and another with
ISO9660+RR+Joilet, with the same data on both sessions. This emulates the
default MacOS behavior if you burn a folder (as compared to burning a disc
image).
I can unequivcally say that HFS+ is _NOT_ based on ISO9660. Your MacOS
disks are all formatted in HFS+, and ISO9660 is a write-once format.
