cdrdao is a command-line tool used for reading and writing CD data.

cdrdao records audio or data CD-Rs in disc-at-once mode based on a textual description of the CD contents known as a TOC file. cdrdao runs from command line and has no graphical user interface, except for third-party ones such as K3b (Linux), Gcdmaster (Linux) or XDuplicator (Windows).

cdrdao 1.1.9 is included with some releases of Exact Audio Copy 1.3.
