You can also specify a range of tracks using something like -t 3+5 to do tracks 3, 4 and 5. If you specify am output file name with the -B option, the track will be that name with the track number after it. myaudio_01, myaudio_02, etc... If you preferrer a GUI to the command line, X-CD-Roast will let you select the tracks. It will also get the CD information for you, so you don't have to type in the names of the songs... (cdda2wav will do that too, if you use the right options...) You may also want to search http://freshmeat.net for some different CLI CD ripping front ends.
