I have a CD containing a single continuous piece of music. Even though the music is continuous, the CD is actually composed of several tracks. It plays continuously on a regular (i.e., not computer based) CD player. When I play it on my computer those track boundaries are audible as a loud click followed by a moment of silence whose duration seems to depend upon the particular software and drive I use.

That in itself is annoying, but this becomes a real issue when I rip the CD with Power2Go 9. It creates a separate file for each track. When I play the files back, each file ends abruptly (because the music is really continuous) but that abrupt ending is the source of the click. I've looked closely at the waveform of each file, and there is no "click" actually recorded in the file. The sound is caused by the abrupt chopping off of the audio.

I tried to fix things up by combining the files using AudioCreator, but unfortunately that doesn't fix the problem. The "clicks" still appear.

I don't know if I've made this clear or not. If anyone thinks it would help, I can post some examples.

My goal is to get this music onto an MP3 player so it sounds continuous.

One more note: this isn't the only CD I've had this problem with. Jerry Schwartz
