So do the others; DAO is not the issue, "jitter", error detection, 
correction and reporting is. Toast's error correction seems to be 
slightly better than the Mac OS X framework (can't judge the 
algorithms, because neither Apple nor Roxio make them public), but it's 
not even in the same class as EAC (which is postcardware, mind you). 
Cdrdao with the paranoia libraries (and cdparanoia, which has also been 
ported to the Mac) is, but it doesn't have some of EAC's advanced 
features, and it's not as easy to use. There's GUI front-end 
(MissingMediaBurner), but it's fairly quite. And neither cdrdao nor 
cdparanoia (even if piping stderr to file) have the detailed error 
reporting capability of EAC.
