I have used 'gtoaster' which is a gui that uses all the standard
programs including mp123 but has a drag and drop
panel to select cd's and mp3's.
Also you can use 'xmms' and its DirectWriterPlugin to convert mp3 to
wav files and then just use 'cdrecord' on the
cmd line. Read about this at www.funky-penguin.co.uk.
