Normal studio recorded CD's are typically mastered with a 2 second postgap so you end up with 2 secs of silence at the end of each ripped track (except, sometimes, the last one). If the CD was mastered with 1 sec postgap you'll get 1 sec of silence, no postgap gives you "gapless" playback. In other words, unless the ripper isn't doing the right thing with the postgap (in which case, replace it!) CD ripped tracks should be "as intended" by the engineer. I totally get your point about vinyl and downloaded tracks though. Although assuming you're ripping the vinyl yourself it shouldn't be hard to include whatever postgap you want.
