Because, if it's a torrent, it's easier to DL part of a VOB and quickly determine quality. Or snarf the extras first (they're usually a separate, smaller VOB). And because "fake"-makers always post in ISO because they want you to waste the maximum amount of time and bandwidth before discovering that you've been hosed.

For PC, ImgTool is a handy utility for generating ISOs from subdirectories. Nero has no trouble with them at all (no arcane monkey-business whatsoever), and I can also drag-n-drop them onto VLC Media Player to see if all the menus are working properly.
