Kinda getting into semantics but CDs use the CD-Text spec and MP3 (and some other compressed formats) uses ID3. ID3 can hold much more data than CD-Text. CDDB is just a public database used for matching CDs to their album information and writing that info to the ID3 tags of the ripped files. As far as I'm aware, they don't use CD-text at all in this process.

EAC+Lame is a probably the best solution around but a bit on the difficult side of things for those that are less computer savvy.
