Cdrdao can read and write CD-Text (if the hardware supports CD-Text). If
the source CD already has CD-Text entries, it copies them. If not,
cdrdao can ask a local CDDB database or a server like FreeDB.

Alas, cdrdao works only with SCSI hardware or with SCSI/ATAPI
emulation on some OSes (not FreeBSD).
