Hi Cal17, and welcome to the forum!

What you are doing, is copying the .cda files (that's the way Windows represents an audio disc as data disc) to the destionation disc, instead of copying the audiotracks themselves.

As I haven't used EZCD for quite some time, I don't exactly know how it handles the copying of loose tracks, but somehow I presume it has a functionality to rip a track and copy it to a disc afterwards. Maybe, the program is even that clever, when you select to write an audio cd, all tracks drag'n dropped from the original audio disc are automatically ripped (that's what Nero does).

If you don't find an solution here, just wait a little time and somebody using EZCD will reply (I guess). If not, contact me and I'll figure it out for you (still got my EZCD, just don't know why)...

I believe Windows shows all the cdsa stuff as 44 bytes.
