If you get a lot of I/O Errors use ddrescue from 
http://www.gnu.org/software/ddrescue/ddrescue.html , NOT the one in the 
repo's as they are not the same. To use it run ddrescue /dev/scd0 
image.iso logfile.log .If you use a log you will be able to stop it and 
continue later. It has a lot of options and there's not much it won't copy.
