that's where the RockRidge extension comes into the picture - those
annoying TRANS.TBL files (or whatever their name is) give out the right
names. anyway, most CDR softwares have the ability to copy an entire CD
to the internal HD (or other dedicated one) and write it all back as an
image, without looking at the contents.
I am sure there is a much cheaper way though... I just ordered from the
US 8 sets of InfoMagik's 4CD set, and it is less than $25 for a package
like that (P&H included) which is the price of a single yet-unused CDR
media disk in Israel... further more, my Quad speed has reading problems
with CDRs...
