Answer 1

System.Data.Linq.Binary contains an array of bytes. You can use it directly as follows:

 Binary binary = //your linq object byte[] array = binary.ToArray(); 

If you must have a BinaryReader in a byte array, you can wrap it as follows:

 BinaryReader reader = new BinaryReader(new MemoryStream(binary.ToArray()));
