From the previous thread...

... if you are creating your own fresh CD rips, there should be no reason that you are finding any of these issues with mp3 or any other file type. So I find it troubling that you are experiencing this in your environment.

There must be some other audio software influencing this that is causing your files to become corrupted in this way. If these are from some other source that you are not getting the CD rips first-hand, I would look closer at that source and see if you can resolve that. I can't think of any other way this should be happening locally in your PC.
