I had a brainwave about this supposed 'fault' last night, while listening
to some Jarre. A little known feature of the CD format is the ability to
place intra-track marks. It is commonly used for marking passages on
classical music CDs, and my Oxygene 7-13 has them. But as I don't yet have
digital (maybe tonight), I can't test whether these are transferred by
S/P-DIF.
At any rate, it could be that this is a normal and desired behaviour. But
if you don't like intra-track marks, you can always delete them... I don't
suppose MD has intra-track marks.

I guess the difference in times is a rounding error. Tracks are actually a
little bit longer than they appear (sound like something one would write on
a rear-view mirror). When you split them the sum of each rounded to the
nearest second can easily be different to the rounded total length of the
original track.
