I think Audacity do a program called Spin-it-again, which cuts the tracks and you even get to name the tracks before they are finalised.

Of course, I couldn't tell anything about accessibility, but since I have a turntable and receiver, I'd prefer not to buy new hardware. Some of the packages seemed to automatically create CDs, another feature I don't want. I may put some stuff on CD, although I imagine I will primarily just use the files on my computer and MP3 player. I have enjoyed getting a sense of what's out there, though.
