I guess I'm struggling with your comment in one line "no gaps whatsoever" followed by your slight retraction in the next "any remaining gaps..." Can you just clarify that from a listeners point of view, as opposed to an engineers... are there gaps or not?

The 2.0 player plays back the tracks exactly as they are, with no gaps between the tracks.

The problem is not the player's problem. The problem is that the MP3 files are encoded with actual silence embedded in the frames at the beginning of each song and at the end of each song. This has nothing to do with the player software, the player software already does all it can (reproduce the files exactly as they are exactly adjacent to each other).

It's not the player's fault that the FILES THEMSELVES have silent spots.

Again, this is all in the FAQ.
