dd exits when it encounters an error. So you have an incomplete ISO. You need to use something like ddrescue with such discs.
Yep; as I noted, I'm using conv=noerror with dd so that it keeps going, writing zeroes in place of the bytes it couldn't read. I believe dd-rescue does the same thing, albeit with retries, but retries wouldn't help anyway. -- Loïc Minier
