Don't use Expander/ShrinkWrap to mount the disk image, it's a 
(S)elf(M)ounting(I)mage file created with Disk Copy (that is, an 
executable), simple double-click on it to launch and mount. As you noted, 
you can also use DiskCopy to mount a .smi file, by dragging and dropping 
the .smi file onto DC.

You might want to disable Expander's disk-mounting-zeal in its prefs, 
I've only ever had trouble with that 'feature'.

Oh, well . . . of course the .bin file could have gotten corrupted in the 
DL but that problem would have popped up when the image-mounting checksum 
process noted a bad file. Re-DLing it ought to cure that.
