Thread Name: Why can't CD's end songs at the end?
Subject: Why can't CD's end songs at the end?
Or maybe I should ask, why can't they begin songs at the beginning? I'm ranting here about putting CDs you like on Random so you can listen to them endlessly, at which point each song ends in a snippet of the one before, and each begins in the middle of its first measure. I find, perhaps unfairly, that Shanachie is one of the worst offenders. Is there a technoreason for this? I can understand it if the 2 songs segue, that it would be impossible to "split" them nicely, or even some live versions. But here I am listening to a studio recording, with a nice few seconds between songs when playing through. So whyOwhy can't they use those seconds to split the tunes???? Rant on! Anybody else wanna complain?
