that's my impression as well. The first time I connected my iPod to 
iTunes after the introduction of gapless, iTunes read each single one of 
my tracks and mentioned "calculating gapless information" or something 
to that respect.

Anyway, I think it's great to start out with reading whatever 
information is available. I'm not even sure if we should do more than that.
