Am I the only one on the list listening to music off of my phone over 
bluetooth in the car or having some other reason to want normalized 
music playback? :O :)

More information.

Found some m4a files that did not have replaygain tags.

Clicking 'tag untagged' then checking at the command line

aacgain -s c *

showed no replaygain data

returning to the replaygain tool, checking the box to for recalculation,
then clicking 'tag untagged'

aacgain -s c *

shows replaygain data.

Later, Seeker
