[NCLUG] audio cd recording strangeness

[William Dan Terry]

Some audio cd's (ripped with grip) and recorded with cdrecord work just
fine. Some others, despite being small in size and short in time (~50
minutes) cause a complaint in recording. I even tried -ignsize. Here is
the output. Any thoughts would be useful. I'm getting divorced and funds
are low and this was a compromise for now. And it fails whether I use a
650MB or 700MB cd-r.

TIA, William
