No... CDs are 650MB or 700MB... perhaps you have re-writable CDs which could be erased... or your looking at burned CDs that aren't anywhere close to full.

650MB will fit on a CD.

It *should* fit.

If not, you can try editing your image file to make it smaller. There are often foreign language files or useless documentation that can be compressed or ripped out entirely.
