   Yes, but that's easy enough to do. For example Hubbard_Rob/Zoids.sid :   
      
   0000000: 5053 4944 0002 007c 0000 1000 1006 0003  PSID...|........   
      
   Here we see that this is a PSID v2. Which means, according to (*), that   
   the "real" song starts at offset 0x7c:   
      
   0000070: 0000 0000 0000 0014 0000 0000 0010 4c31  ..............L1   
      
   0x7c - 0x7d is the loading address. In this case $1000.   
   Just save the file from 0x7c and your're done.   
      
   Init: $1000   
   Play: $1006
