As most of you experienced mp3 gurus are well aware, encoding a CD with
continuous sound into mp3 files results in a slight dropout at the track
boundaries, in spite of the fact that the original has no such gap. This is
apparently due to the fact that encoding has to be done in frames and,
unless the length of the track has an integer number of frames (highly
unlikely) there will be an audible gap at the point where the coder has to
start a new frame.
I've experienced this many times over the years, but in the last year or so
I've run into a lot of recordings where there should be a gap, but there
isn't. The question is, what is different about the CDs that allow a
perfect gapless mp3 playback and those that don't?
