Hm, I'm burning CD's in FreeBSD since one and a half year or so and had
almost no trouble.

If you mean an 'image' copy: try dd with block size 2048. I think there's
'sdd' in the ports collection for CD's that have tricky copy protection
causing dd to fail. For audio CD's, this does not work. You have to
grab the audiotracks with one of the programs in the ports collection
(cdda2wav comes to mind).

Convert mp3 to wav with some program. Lately I used xmms ('disk writer
plugin') to do this. Then I used sox to convert the (mono, 22kHz in my case)
wav into a standard audio CD track. Then it's simply a matter of burning it
with cdrecord. Probably it can be done smarter, but this worked.
