Cdparanoia (Paranoia III) reads digital audio directly from a CD, then
writes the data to a file or pipe in WAV, AIFC or raw 16 bit linear
PCM format.  Cdparanoia doesn't contain any extra features (like the
ones included in the cdda2wav sampling utility).  Instead, cdparanoia's
strength lies in its ability to handle a variety of hardware, including
inexpensive drives prone to misalignment, frame jitter and loss of
streaming during atomic reads.  Cdparanoia is also good at reading and
repairing data from damaged CDs.
