This exact same thing happend to me. I read this last night and tried the same thing but it did not work. How exactly did you burn it to a disk i think that may have been where i went wrong. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you

You can call it as a coincidence, but a similar thing happened on my end. As Keith said, I used Ubuntu to recover my files.

Ubuntu is great. I hope you enjoy it.

Here is another example of using Ubuntu (Linux) as a rescue.

When we had to reload Windows on our main computer, I forgot to back up the iTunes files. My son was afraid that when he synced his iPod with the computer, he might lose some of his music.

This computer has a dual boot system with Ubuntu on another disk, so we fired up Ubuntu and plugged in the iPod. Ubuntu sees the iPod as a computer disk, so we copied the files, took them to Windows and imported them into iTunes. It worked perfectly.
