To copy from CD to CD, the source drive needs to support digital audio extraction, which is rare among older drives but universal in current models. Ideally, the copy program will use disc-at-once recording to produce a duplicate that mimics the original as closely as possible. As with copying CD-ROMs, you must be able to read data off of the source drive faster than your recorder is writing. If you can only extract audio at 1x, you’re not going to be able to do a CD-to-CD copy reliably. If you’re just interested in extracting digital audio, you don’t even need a CD-R unit, just a CD-ROM drive that supports Digital Audio Extraction (DAE) and some software. The CD-DA sites noted at the top of this section list drives that support DAE, have software to evaluate your existing drive, and have links to several different
