Or cdrdao maybe? I'm sure Zonker will know.

YMMV. I've burned coasters and not-quite coasters after a successful run
with -dummy. I was making a copy of an audio CD which skips on my stereo,
but not my 'puter. Ran out of space on the platter, but -dummy won't show
you that problem. And yes, I was using the 80min platters. So what I want
to know is, is there a way to make an "image" copy of an audio CD?
cdparanoia + cdrecord doesn't seem to do it, and preserve track info.
