I did notice that cdda2wav created a txtinfo file resembling the data track, but it appears to be mostly unintelligible with bits of recognizeable english words mixed in, file cmd says its binary. I suppose I'll need to do some research and experimentation with the cdda2wav program to get at the meats. Waitman Gobble San Jose California
