You should not (and perhaps cannot) use dd to dump a CD.
There are (at least) two ways CD's are written --- tracks and packets.
The former can be read and written by "cdrecord" tools which have now
been forked into the "wodim" tools; there is also the "cdrdao" tool
which reads and writes tracks.
The packet mode is used by "udftools". That is the typical format for
film DVD's.
As far as I know these tools do not really "care" what type of data
is read or written on the tracks or packets.
