The dd command line should be pretty consistent, as long as your input 
device and output file location are constant. (You could always make the 
output file a script parameter.)

I'm not familiar with those tools, but I would expect any modern CD 
recording tool to have a clone option where it will take an existing CD, 
write it to an ISO file, or directly to another CD drive. Perhaps these 
tools can do that, you just need to do it in two steps, first creating 
the ISO, then burning a new disk from it.
