As I replied to Pete Collier's post on the 13 May in the thread "mp3 to 
audio conversion":

>From the CD-Writing-HOWTO, section 3.2.1: Writing Audio CDs:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
  One notable format not directly readable by cdrecord is MPEG Layer 3.
  To convert files in this format to the CDR-format, you can use the
  command "mpg123 --cdr - track1.mp3 > track1.cdr".  The option --cdr
  ensures the track is encoded in the required format (see above). Older
  versions of mpg123 require -s instead of the plain - to write to
  stdout.  The other direction (converting from WAV to MPEG) can be done
  with LAME for WAV-files (extract the track with cdda2wav from the
  audio CD and encode it into MP3 with the help of LAME).

  To create a CD-R from a whole bunch of MP3-files, you can use the
  following command sequence:

  for I in *.mp3
  do
      mpg123 --cdr - "$I" | cdrecord -audio -pad -swab -nofix -
  done
  cdrecord -fix
