Though it's listed on the back, Agoraphobic Nosebleed's "Altered States of America" has a "00" track. Even stranger about that disc perhaps, is the fact that there are technically 100 tracks on a 3" CD. Gotta love those wacky grindcore bands

All CDs have at least 2 or 3 seconds of silence before the first track- I always pause the CD player at the start and check the time remaining display, and scan backwards as far as it will go.

Just found out about another one: Friction, Baby by Better Than Ezra

According to a post on the band's message board, the beginning hidden track is just on the first pressing CDs; otherwise, the hidden track is the last song on the disc.

What happens when you put one of these cd's into itunes or a similar program? Will it recognize the extra tracks?

Another one is Whiskeytown's "Rural Free Delivery"

As for ripping these tunes, I haven't figured out a way to do it, but I'm sure there is software out there that can...

Cheap Trick's self-titled 1997 album has about 3 hidden minutes of demo's/outtakes. You can access it by following the directions above.
