You want lame, a WAVE => MP3 converter which will also embed the ID3 tags.

I think cdda2wav might be able to pull metadata from the CD along with the 
WAVE track.

Also:

marchhare% apt-file search cddb | grep '/usr/bin'
abcde: /usr/bin/cddb-tool
cdrdao: /usr/bin/toc2cddb
cdtool: /usr/bin/cdtool2cddb
libcddb-get-perl: /usr/bin/cddbget

As a guess abcde and libcddb-get-perl look promising...
