-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 You make some interesting points here. I think a correction for audio CDs would be in order though. You should put a '-audio' in front of the *.wav; otherwise, you would end up with a data CD with wav files on it. I always specify -data or -audio depending on my uses of cdrecord. If you are working with audio CDs, cdrdao is another program which is better suited if you want to make exact copies of audio CDs. If you get into extracting CDs, may I suggest abcde, a powerful shell script which will integrate cdparanoia, oggenc or lame for encoding and appropriate taggers so I can sit down and pop in an audio CD, type in 'abcde' and a while later, I have a directory of oggs or mp3s (depending on choices that are properly named and tagged. It really rocks!
