that is not clipping. those are post mastering imports into a cheap program. the wave form looks like that because limiting has been added in the mastering process. limiting allows the overall volume to be increased, however it does affect the dynamic range, but those wave forms do not represent clipping. if you use a real program that allows you to zoom in to properly see the data sample by sample you will find that none of the data goes beyond around -1 to -0.1dB. which is the average to what most mastering studios will master too these days. clipping does not sound good. the wave forms you show are not clipping they are just being limited.
