Extract with human readable CD-TEXT:

   mkdir /home/me/my_cd
   cdrskin -v dev=/dev/sr0 \
           extract_audio_to=/home/me/my_cd \
           cdtext_to_v07t=/home/me/my_cd/cdtext.v07t

Burn the extracted tracks and CD-TEXT:

   cdrskin -v dev=/dev/sr0 \
           /home/me/my_cd/*.wav \
           input_sheet_v07t=/home/me/my_cd/cdtext.v07t

("Sony Input Sheet version 0.7T" is a format that was specified by one
of the inventors of Compact Disc.
See  man cdrskin  or  libburn/doc/cdtext.txt .)

In my case it was the fact that CD burning came with a generous serving
of verbal abuse as soon as there was reason to contact the author of
cdrecord. The author of growisofs did not want to go for CD.
But i wanted CD TAO writing for data backup without cdrecord.

When i was done so far, Debian forked wodim from cdrecord. So we
suddenly had three programs capable of writing CDs without the need
for exact size prediction.


Have a nice day :)
