Hi RipGroove -
I'm not sure where you may have read that, but it's not the case.
Media doesn't "snap" to the beat detection markers. They're just points to help (manually) sync media to the beat.

P.S. If you're interested in a technique to get beat detection to work more accurately, I can post it here. The way it works now is (at best) a rough guide.
