Moving right along, I think Shetline hit the nail on the head: Apple biffed on the some of the EQ when ripping their music store files. I guess when you have that many files to work with it is inevitable that some will get messed up. When I play those particular songs, I have to turn the volume up close to 50% on both my computer and car stereo in order to hear the songs at the standard volume the others play at. Wierd.
It is possible that Apple only ripped one version of a song that appears on more than one album, but lists it as being from both. A bit cheeky but quite possible. This would mean that a tracks volume relative to the rest of the album could be out of whack.

Does iTunes sound check equalization carry over into burned CDs? I don't think it does... but it sure should!
It's an option in the preferences.
