I've done everything possible I know to eliminate the brief "blip" between tracks when burning something off of iTunes. On albums, it tends to not be a big deal, because there's usually a gap between tracks and it goes unnoticed. However, I've been burning live shows where sometimes one song segues into another and eventhough there's no break in the music, the tracks are indexed so as to avoid 30+ minute single tracks when really two songs are being performed. Any help on how to get that little pause out would be MASSIVELY appreciated.

You might try using the Crossfade Playback (it's under preferences on the audio tab). It will fade one song into the next when playing, I'm not sure if that works with burning though.

Yeah, I tried that. It's a playback only feature. Thanks for the suggestion though. :)

Get another burning program.

I'm serious. I've tried and tried to make iTunes work with this exact problem, but with no success. Accoustica CD burner is pretty solid...but i think you have to pay for it.

Combine all the tracks into just one single track.

this works for me:

go to preferences, then click the burning tab. there should be a gap between songs pop-up menu. choose none. there still might be a slight gap (very slight) ... if you want no gap you have to join the tracks together (make it one track, which you said you didn't want).
but this first method works fine for me (for example, on the last half of the abbey road album).

good luck.
