No ;) That will work *if* size_per_sample == sizeof(short) but is 
then unnecessarily circuitous. If you ultimately want your program to 
handle arbitrary frame widths or at least a range of common values, 
you will need to piece the samples together from the raw bytes with 
bitwise operations or else duplicate the affected code.

Actually, I recommend you stop mucking about with that stuff and use 
libsndfile: http://www.mega-nerd.com/libsndfile/
