If it shows in Accuraterip as Insecure (13) I guess that means 13 people ripped this CD and all got the same result. I assume this reflects a manufacturing flaw?

Re: CD In Accuraterip But Rips Insecure
As there are other pressings you can only base on the number on other tracks, for example 10 tracks all around the 50 mark, one rips with an insecure, you can be sure that it is 50 like the others.
When a miss-match it shows any of the result confidences which could be for a different pressing. -

Or a new pressing. I ripped Smokey Robinson & The Miracles 35th Anniversary box yesterday. 4 discs and 3 of them showed Inaccurate for every single track. The 4th was fine and showed Accurate (1) for each track.
Clearly this isn't a real problem with the discs.Comment

The option is there and checked, but doesn't that require others to have already ripped the new pressing before it can recognize it?Comment

No, AccurateRip identifies an album by TOC. If two albums have the same TOC, they will go into the same AccurateRip ID, and AccurateRip will not know whether a disagreement is an erroneous rip or just plainly a totally different signal. As long as the pressings have the same TOC -- so that the only difference is that one bitstream is aligned some samples to the left or right of the other -- then the cross-pressing verification should catch it. (I don't know how much off it could be at maximum.)
It seems to happen from time to time, that remasters are sometimes made on a digital copy with track boundaries set, so there might be two different masterings with the same TOC. But I'd say that your result is suspicious.Comment
