Adobe Audition (and other programs surely) will let you select the time display format.
By default that is in DECIMAL, which is not the mode you should work in if you are editing stuff to be burned on CD. Switch from Decimal mode to 'Compact Disc 75fps' and then you'll edit seamlessly for the needs of your target medium.

Mr Scully (& others), thanks for your reply - at least some people really understand my question! No offence to the others that didn't!
Thinking about it, when I ripped Live Killers to Windows Media Player (encoding to WMA) no silence was introduced. Being bold, how about an experiment in encoding bootlegs to WMAs instead of mp3s in this forum? Mind you, it will piss off the Mac users ;)
Just a thought.
Also, can I say again a MASSIVE thanks to all uploaders! We all really appreciate it!

It's definitely possible. Removing the mp3 gaps in a wave editor is a trial and error thing. I used to do this years ago, before I knew the difference between mp3 and wav.
Earwig, I wouldn't recommend doing the cross-fade thing. Although it will appear that the gaps are gone, you'll lose a couple seconds between each song.

There are software players which support gapless playback for LAME-encoded mp3s. One of them is foobar2000. For winamp there are plugins available which support gapless playback:
MAD http://www.mars.org/home/rob/proj/mpeg/mad-plugin/
or
Otachan

foobar alos has a burn-function, so maybe that way you can burn audio-cds from mp3 without gaps, but I can only guess there. At least it can read cue sheets, so you could create a single mp3 file with a cue sheet.

AHA! Thank you for that. I'll look into it

I gotta thank you for this info Pete. I've been plagued by clicks for years without knowing why.. was always trial and error.. finding just the right place for transitions.. now I know what my problem was :-P
Except the old version of Sound Forge I use (6.0b) doesn't have the 75fps option.. it has these choices..

So will one of those work? And also there's something I read somewhere about 'snap to frame' which Sound Forge also doesn't have. it snaps to zero or to a set time (like 1 second) and there's no way to change that from time to frames.. however.. hmm.. if there's a set amount of time which equals a frame then I could do that, right?
