For a number of reason I suppose.

If you mount an image then you can run the iso file as if it was a disk in your cd-rom.

For instance if I wanted to mount an iso of office xp or 2003 and it was iso or .bin, I could mount the iso, run setup, and installed it without taking the time of burning the image to an actual disk.

On one of my computers I dont have a dvd drive and I wanted to watch a movie I had downloaded from bittorent and I didnt want to watch it on my other boxes so I used daemon tools to mount the movie and it created a virtual dvd drive so I could watch it.
