Are you after "no pause" between tracks, or no silence at all between songs? There is a difference as each music file has a short bit of silence after each song embedded in the file. In which case you will need a sound editor to crop that bit. Quite a lot more labor intensive.

If your source is MP3 or some other compressed format you pretty much can't. These formats generally have to end on a full frame and get padded with silence to accomplish that.

You can easily crop right down to the very note or vocal syllable with Audacity and save it as such or as a new mp3 file by changing the file name. Actually you could crop all your songs on the playlist and paste them together as one big non-stop music mp3 file. I've done it many times and it works like a charm. But as I said, it is quite time consuming and you will need at least a "little" experience with Audacity.

Yes, but when you save as MP3 from Audacity, it might have to pad the last frame. You could trim the silence then save as WAV I suppose.

It doesn't add any silence at the end. Mp3 frame boundaries are not arbitrary. There may be a pad bit or a "sync word" at the frame boundary, but inaudible to the human ear. The .mp3 will sound like it stops abruptly at the end crop point.
