Hi Will and others,
The "Join CD tracks" setting is only remembered for a particular CD.
It does not apply to new CDs that you insert. You do need to unjoin
the tracks if you want to access the tracks individually again for
importing. You can still navigate to and play individual tracks in
the Songs table for the CD -- the joining only applies to the way the
CD is ripped.
As I posted yesterday, iTunes keeps track of status information like
whether tracks are joined and what the current tagging information is
for your CDs in a local file named "CD Info.cidb" that is located in
the Library/Preferences folder of your user account. (See that post
for more information and a link to the Apple knowledge base article on
"How iTunes remembers audio CDs".)
Unless you are using some other setting for iTunes 8.01 that I don't
know about, I don't find any way to always join tracks on every new CD
that is inserted. I just tried inserting a CD, joining tracks,
ejecting, and inserting a new CD to check this.
Cheers,
Esther

Hello to the person who wanted to know, if joining tracks always
occured each new cd?
yes it does unless you select, unjoin cd tracks from the i tunes
advanced menu so that all tracks of a disk become one file each again
