Best CD Copy command
 cdrecord -v -dummy -eject dev=1,2,0 speed=4 -isosize /dev/scd0

Data CD
 cdrecord -v -dummy -eject dev=1,2,0 speed=6 ImageFile
 cdrecord -v -tao -eject dev=1,2,0 speed=6 ImageFile

Audio CD
 Use slower speed with network links, and if cdrecord will do
the conversion to cdr.
 cdrecord -v -dummy -eject dev=1,2,0 speed=1 *.cdr
