Do I need to buy a DVD burner to get an ISO file onto a DVD-R? if so, how much money would the cheapest dvd burner that works cost?
Answer to the first question: Yes And the second: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16827152058 Cheap and blindingly fast.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16827101649 Cheap,quality drive,nero oem,and booktyping capability! Forget about the price being cheap. The main thing is quality. Quality drive and quality media will save you a lot of headaches.There's lots of crappy burners out there that cost more than the nec or benq.Other quality drives are Plextor/Lite-on/LG/and pioneer.Newegg has all those writers there so you can check up on them.
