When this happens I highlight the tracks that didn't satisfy
accurateRip, and then use Burst Mode in EAC to test and then copy. 75%
of the time these then satisfy accurateRip.

Scratched discs can be read like this a lot of times as well, but in
the case of pristine discs I attribute it to some kind of benign copy
protection (wild guess). It's like there are intentional errors or
something, but they pass through a regular cd player- and also burst
mode sometimes, where EAC fails. Tool's 10k days was the last one I
encountered. 

I don't let EAC run two hours for fear of damaging the drive. If it
hangs I skip track within ten minutes, and try burst mode or fast mode
on that track later. 

IME, letting secure mode go for ages on known errors always causes a
glitch. Sometimes it sounds radial, like a cd is spinning- but through
squeezebox. If the scratch is deep the data is lost forever, and there
will be an inevitable glitch. They seem less offensive, and more easily
eliminated in Audacity, through burst mode.
