I tried yesterday to write to the CD but when i went to open it in an internet cafe it would find no data cause the drivers in my college are a bit messed up.

SO im stuck with an 87mb DJ set on my PC in college and i need to know is there anyway i could say..put it online or something so that i could download it then in the internet cafe or something or any other ideas would be really appreciated. Or if there was some website that lets you upload music besides the file sharing ones so i could download it at a later date. thanks!

DirectCD formats the cd in a special way. Some of the directcd formatted cds include the software needed for reading them on the disk so that when you insert the disk into a pc it installs and you can read it but this probably wouldn't work with netcafe machines because of restrictions. You're likely to have more luck with a PC running Windows 2000 and Windows XP because the format is becoming more standard (it's called UDF). If you're on a linux machine you can mount it as a udf type filesystem (as apposed to iso9660 for normal cds).
