Can't you set Toast to put a zero second gap between tracks, but it will
still have an auidble click if sound is playing between the tracks. You
could use Toast to do a SCSI copy from the Mac internal CDROM drive to the
CDR drive, if you have a SCSI internal CDROM drive. But this will still put
a very short gap between tracks, only noticable if you have sound that
plays over the track gaps, this is because Toast only copies in
track-at-once mode and turns the CDR laser off between tracks.

With Jam, you use the Toast Audio Extractor and save the extracted image as
a Jam playlist file, you choose this filetype from the options menu. Then
you shouldn't have to make a new playlist when you load it into Jam.

As for doing an exact CD to CDR copy of an audio CD, in disc-at-once mode
without any gaps at all, I don't know of any Mac software that will do it
without extracting first!
