Then you did probably not recently try cdda2wav. After the development for
cdparanoia stopped in year 2000, cdda2wav integrated the important code parts
from cdparanoia into cdda2wav by creating a portable library libparanoia in
April 2002.
Since then, cdda2wav combines the best features from both commands. If you like
to tell cdda2wav to use the paranoia code, just call cdda2wav -paranoia.
Cdda2wav is able to read many CDs that cannot be read by cdparanoia at all.
