Last time I had to do this kind of work, I used cdrdao
for Linux. Not sure
where that software is these days, in terms of development / support - but
at the time, it was about the best for the job.
I do all my CD backups / imaging
with cdrdao. It creats an exact image
of each track along with the TOC metadata needed to recreate the CD.
I.e. it works well with mixed mode CDs and stuff like that.
dd can't do this. It simply reads data until an I/O error occurs.
Usually the resulting image will contain a few sectors of lead out
garbage. So each generation of copy will be slightly larger. And of
course it will fail on anything but simple, plain data CDROMs.
I use cdparanoia to rip audio cds if I just want the PCM data for trans
coding to FLAC.
