Linn produced an extension to enable gapless playback many years ago. At this stage, it could not be described as a 'proposed' extension. This has also been slow to be adopted by other manufacturers.

Thank you. I take your points, but they do not reduce the boggle factor by much. The practical difference between the effect the standards are having and 'no provision' is not all that great. A clear and mandatory provision in the standard from the outset would have been a different matter ...
