I just found out what that "Part of a gapless album" setting for the songs is for. If you have "crossfade" playback turned on in iTunes, setting the "part of a gapless album" switch will disable crossfading for that song. IiTunes help tried to explain it like this:

Quote:
Some CDs, such as live concert albums and classical albums, are meant to be played straight through, with no fading between the songs (or tracks). If you turn on Crossfade Playback, you can have iTunes turn it off when you play these albums.

So, with crossfade on and the gapless album switch not set, it will crossfade between tracks on the album, which is not what you want for a "gapless" album. Setting the gapless album switch disables crossfading for those songs.
