iso file from a cd

[arora.himanshu at gmail.com]

I've already tried this. This doesn't work. Even mkisofs is not able to
recognize the cd. But gnome-cd is able to play the songs well. The cd seems
to have some other format, I think all the song cds(original one) have the
same format(might be I'm wrong). If any one could help I would be happy.
