I've done some research and I've been told that the relay click is used to switch between different "sample rates and bit depths". So if you're listening to an album that was all recorded (digitally) identically, you will get no click. If there is any difference, then you'll get the click. I think you can also get the click is there is a short period of silence between the tracks (when streaming) that is not presented in the same format.
this is correct - the clicking is pita... bad when you have a playlist that has tracks of different types
