How to clone copy-protected audio CDs using linux
(or generally speaking, how to create an exact copy of any multitrack CD)
1. copy the cd to an image file
2. burn the image to a cd
Using cdrdao ("disk-at-once") is imho the best solution to copy a CD, because you get an exact copy of the whole disk, not just a copy of each track. => This preserves for instance the delay between tracks on an audio CD.
1. copy the cd to an image file
# cdrdao read-cd --read-raw --device /dev/hdc --driver generic-mmc-raw --datafile cd.bin cd.toc
2. burn the image to a cd
# cdrdao write --speed 64 --device /dev/hdc --driver generic-mmc --eject cd.toc
