comments:

I did consider using the circulating aud to patch the
problems with d1t08 & t09, but it is of such inferior
quality that I did't think it would have added anything
that was worthwhile.

Despite all the problems that remain, this is a vast
improvement over the aud.

Tagging notes:
Show information is embedded within the header of each flac file.
It will display on any player capable of directly playing flac
files. If converted to wav during processing, all tags will be
stripped, however audio data will remain unaffected. If you must
transcode to a lossy format, do so directly Flac > Lossy.
Use ffp to validate audio integrity.
Md5 values will change if tagging is altered.
