The best way to get track times is to load a WAV into a sound editor. It should give you the time down to the milliseconds. Just simply glancing at any possibly estimated time that's given out by programs such as Winamp, Foobar, or even Windows Explorer (by clicking on the file and viewing the length in the folder) can lead to getting an incorrect time, since different programs treat milliseconds different (round up, truncate...). I doubt many people are going to load WAV files into a sound editor, but it is the best way to get an accurate time. I guess you could also use CD software, but I'm never too sure if even that is accurate.

A second off means one of the two times is wrong. There is only one correct time.
