There shouldn't be any difference and so every program will be able to burn it 
(I work with cdrecord).
If a certain program needs a .iso extension just move the .raw to .iso

If you are not sure whether a file is in iso format then just try to mount it
with something like this:

mount -o loop=/dev/loop0 potato-XXXX.raw /mnt -t iso9660

You need loop support enable in the kernel to do this.
