Product Description:

With MP3 Trimmer you can edit your MP3 files - fast and easy - without re-encoding. Select your trim in-point and out-point and save it as new MP3 file with exactly the same audio quality as the original! You may also add a smooth fade-in or fade-out to your new file, to eliminate abrupt beginnings or endings. Your original MP3 file is left intact.

What's new in this version:

Add Audio Silence! In an MP3 file, silence isn't just zeroes. The silent part must be encoded in exactly the same way as the rest of the file. Now you can add any length of complete silence at the beginning or end of your MP3 file - even when batch processing numerous files, or using the Auto-Trim feature!
QT-import - The import parser now performs a thorough scan inside QuickTime mov-containers for valid MP3 data. In short, this means if you edit MP3 files (with cut, copy & paste) inside the QuickTime player * - and save it as a QuickTime movie file (.mov) - you can import the .mov into MP3 Trimmer and re-save it as a 100% valid MP3.
Batch processing further improved and more accurate now. The batch analysis routine is better to identify files that need repair. In addition, the Auto-create filename feature is more reliable now. The Batch repair feature will also try harder to maintain valid ID3 tag data during repair.
Sort out good / bad files - New option in Batch processing mode; When performing 'Analysis only' you can choose to collect either all good files (that don't need repair) or all broken files (that need repair) in a specified destination folder. Time-saving when you wish to quickly sort out files based on their condition.
A long time suggestion was implemented; upon completion of various tasks - if Trimmer is in the background - it will bounce the dock icon for attention.
Smarter file renaming in Batch mode. If a duplicate file was found when attempting to save or copy during batch processing, MP3 Trimmer will simply add incremental numbering to the filenames and save the files whithout reporting any errors.
Even more handsome - Finally, MP3 Trimmer got a new icon and a slightly redesigned main window interface.

This version fixes the trimmed file track time discrepancy I reported previously.

Just after I submitted a notice for this new version I discovered a problem with this new version. Split track duration times appear 5-6x longer than they actually are in other players like iTunes.
You can correct it by re-feeding the tracks through the previous version (2.8.5) but I'd recommend just sticking with 2.8.5 for now.

I've contacted the author on this but thought others should be aware in case VT doesn't take this down temporarily as I suggested.
