How do personally transfer Hardcore to your Ipods?
Do you transfer them as individual tracks as per the CD and put up with the annoying pause between every track which completely ruins the mix, or do you transfer the whole mix as single track?

I usually do the whole mix if I downloaded it, but I separate the tracks for CD compilations and put it on shuffle, I get a lot more variety that way.

At moment all mine are separated into tracks because I like the fact that you can pick everything by one artist and play them one after the other. But I'm seriously considering re-transfer them all again combined.
There wouldn't be a problem if Apple just got their act together and improved the software, surely it can't be that hard to have gapless playback?

If the CD is already seperated into tracks, like let's say clubland 2, I'll leave it like that. But if it's a whole mix, I'll leave it like that too.
It is ver obnoxious if you have one killer tune on a mix and you have to keep finding where the track is on the mix every time you just want to listen to that song.

I don't do the whole i-pod thing, I'm not down with the mainstream. I've gone to the creative labs side :p. besides, it was the price of a i-pod nano and it stores 10 times as much music in the same quality... the choice was rather easy :p
*cough* anyways, I usually uploaded my mixes split into tracks (dont know if the MP3 player supports a whole mp3 to be honest)
EDIT: Gapless? then dont use MP3, cause mp3 has is not gapless, even if you cut it properly. If the mp3 player supports ogg and can prebuffer next track, then it would be trully gapless

depends on the files really, on my mp3 player (creative labs Zen Touch) some songs in sequence are played back gapless but with other files it's not so.

For the iPod, and any other mp3 players that have hard discs, its nearly impossible and a fluke if it sounds gapless. The same way a computer can't play separate tracks gaplessly in mp3 format...i.e. iTunes, the way it's stored in the iPod is ridiculous. Makes it very difficult for the iPod to navigate the next track.
However, mp3 players with flash memory, i.e. iPod Shuffle/Nano, should be able to emulate gapless playback.
