Originally developed by the to store large disk and disc images (like hard drives and laserdiscs), CHD is a lossless compression container. For the PlayStation 1, this means converting standard disc images—originally comprised of multiple files like .bin and .cue —into a single, highly compressed .chd file.
A rising trend is modders distributing their projects as CHDs. Because CHD is a single container file (unlike the fragmented bin/cue), modders can alter the structure of the game—adding new FMVs or re-arranging the file system—and ensure the end-user burns
