This utility seems to have more to do with recording CD's than extracting images from them. I already use cdrecord for all of my CD burning needs. I just need a way to take a CD that already has data on it and extract that data as an ISO-9660 image that I can store on my hard disk. Thanks for taking the time to reply. If you know how to do what I'm asking, I'd be greatful for another pointer.... David C.
