[LUG] Audio-CD copying

Thanks for the help getting my CD-Rom drive into "scsi-emulation mode".  
Unfortunately X-CD-Roast seems to only supports "on the fly" copying for data 
CDs :-(

I've been reduced to using cdda2wav (with lib paranoia) to rip, then cdrecord 
to burn.  This has three problems: you can't do it "on the fly", it's slow, 
and, worse, the finished CDs have "skips" on them in places.

Seeing as the source CDs play fine in my CD player (and hence, surely, in my 
CD-Rom drive), why I can't just make an *exact* copy.  Sure, the errors will 
be copied as well, but if they are 'corrected' by my hi-fi CD player then I'm 
not that bothered.

Or can I?

Cheers,

Jon
PS:  The list's been quiet this afternoon, does this mean you geeks actually 
go outside?  ;-)
