Certainly.  cdrdao does copies very well, tho a bit slowly.  I am
looking for alternatives to allow me to store and use the 'intermediate'
audio data ... what gets read from the audio cd when it is copied, but
preserve it in its original format - not compress it.

I think I got the answer ... rip, but don't encode, store it as
.wav files.
