Kate--

I get that sometimes on gospel music of a pentecostal sort, where the "end" of the song is extended forever. If it is a copy for my own use only (which is what is legal), I just divide them where I feel a transition in the song, where it feels right to me.

I ALSO have material, though, that is one, one-hourlong track on a CD, where a radio program is an hour or so in length and I expect to like 90% of it. When I play one of those and don't like a passage, I use the next-track control when I play it back. On many players, if you push that control once, you skip to next track; but if you hold it down, it fast-forwards within the track. My favorite radio show has an opening these song that I cannot stand, so I routinely fast-forward the playback to skip the first 3 minutes and 11 seconds, since I know that's how much time that song will take.

Anyway, if it's too hard to divide, you don't have to divide it at all.
