Hi,
I am in full agreement with this.
The Book Sense firmware for the player does not have the right to change how
the recordings were made.
There is no reason for it to insert a pause for any reason!
This is one that is a real no brainer when it comes to listening to live
performances and audio books ripped from CD audio books.
This is one that the programmers at HIMS need to remove from the firmware,
or, maybe put it into the playback options as a "add pause" or "do not add
pause" option if they think it even needs to be there at all!

The pause between tracks may be fine for many albums, however there are
many others that are intended to be heard continuously, even though the
tracks may have separate titles. When I first mentioned this issue here,
Raul mentioned Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon as a particular example
where the pause between tracks diminishes the listening experience. I can
think of many others, both in the classic rock genre as well as in several
subgenres of electronic music where the pause between tracks negatively
affects the listening experience. And, as I said, many albums were not
intended to be heard with pauses between tracks; so the Book Sense should
not be inserting one. Whether there is a pause between tracks is something
that should be left up to the creators of the music. Any portable CD
player can play a CD the way it was intended to be heard, that is, without
pauses between tracks if that is the way its creator wanted it to be
heard. The Book Sense should function the same way for albums that were
ripped from CD's.

I like the pause between tracks although it has been awhile since I have
played any music so I can't remember how long the pause is. I do like a
pause between tracks.
