Hi Dan

The only way I can see you doing this is by using direct CD-DA access to the
drive itself and extracting the error correction information along with the track
data.

Unfortunately I don't know how this is done, and the book to tell you (the Red
Book) costs about $240 USD.

I just did a quick search... Tau Analyzer looks interesting...I don't know if it
will do what you want though.
