Album wrap is a program to make one mp3 out of an album, while preserving the tag data for each song. I've never used it, but I've used Album Wrap Extractor, its free companion program which splits the big mp3 created by Album Wrap back into its original parts. The only problem with it is that some people apparently don't encode the albw files properly, and one can spend hours getting a file, thinkingone will have the complete album to split into its individual tracks, and then be told upon attempting the extraction "This is not a valid album Wrap archive.".
