Incorrect song lengths = premature song cut-offs. #28

Hello,

First, thanks for putting together this app.  It’s well done, highly
anticipated, and greatly appreciated.  I was the first to write a review
and happily gave it 5 stars.

However, I’ve found a problem:  Songs or song lengths are not being
downloaded correctly and songs are getting cut off.

At first I thought songs were being dropped, but then I noticed that the
songs on many albums were being cut-off, as if the recording was over.
After comparing song length times to the times on 1) the cd 2) itunes and
3) my mp3tunes locker, I noticed that even though these 3 players showed
roughly the same song length, the length reported on airband could be 10 to
40 seconds less.  

Weirdly, this does not happen on all albums.  Nor is the time shaved
consistent.  (It may be a percentage, I didn’t do the math.)

I would be happy to offer specific examples if you want to contact me.  At
first I thought there were problems with the cd ripping or the mp3tunes
locker uploading, but all those check out.  For some odd reason, airband
thinks the songs are shorter than they really are.  (And not all song, so
go figure.)

For instance:  Killing Joke, “Love Like Blood” off the album Night Time can
be played directly off my mp3tunes locker player and clocks in at 6:50. 
According to the airband app, this song is 6:00, stops playing at 6:00 and
robs me of the final 50 seconds of the song.

Thanks for looking into this, and I hope I can be of some help.

Erik Calcott
