Before I go any further I know the ultimate answer to this question is 'try 
it' but for the sake of saving the cost of a CD-R, here goes:

I want to back up some stuff on CD-R using cdrecord. The stuff (uncompressed 
audio) is in various directories and I don't want to / cant be bothered to, 
alter the existing directory structure, but I also don't need to back up all 
the directories.

Can I create a new directory and in it place symbolic links to the 
directories I want to save, then use the upper directory as the input 
directory for cdrecord?

TIA
