Pretty nifty trick there, Jim (and Noel). If Noel didn’t put that in the Tips and Tricks Forum, he should.

As an aside, in all the decades I’ve used BIAB I only had one song I judged to be corrupt, and I’ve never seen anything specific to either cause or identify a corrupt file as such. I wonder if PG Music could write a utility that employs this technique and at minimum, strips out anything it deems corrupt.
