I tend to use gcombust, which is a not brilliant but useable gui frontend for 
cdrecord, other people have recommended K3B. I think everything else sucks 
AFAIK, but I'd be glad to find out otherwise. I still have no idea if it's 
possible to burn a red-book (or even orange-book) Audio CD. As everyone 
recommends K3B I'll have another look at it. last time I tried it complained 
that some of the .wavs were wrong ended, which I don't understand as I'm sure 
they were all done in one session and I couldn't immediately find a 
command-line utility to convert them. I'm sure libsndfile should be able to 
do it, I just haven't had the time to mess around with it.
