I believe cdcopy ships with the blade encoder only. You can point it at a bunch of other encoders (including Lame) if you want, though.
Blade doesn't, as far as I know, support VBR. CD Copy, in its "using Blade" mode, has no aparrent way to select VBR (as you'd expect); I'm not sure whether that would change if you switched to Lame.
Despite CD Copy's general ease of use, I have to say it does not appear to be straightforward if you want anything other than Blade. So if you want Lame (and that's generally considered to be the best encoder) you're probably better of selecting something else.
