[mb-users] Pre-gap tracks / duplicate albums

[Philip Jägenstedt]

OK, never mind that particular release, but can we have a link to SOME
release with a pregap? I just don't understand how it's possible to
attach PUID:s or tag with it and want to see what you mean.

Besides, AutoEditors make mistakes too, and shouldn't be to prestigous
to admit it.
