Thanks for everybody's advice. some comments: * Grip is fantastic * Thanks for observing that mp3 -> ogg is lossy, and that I should just delete my mp3s and go from CD -> ogg where possible * It's my Hard drive that doesn't support FLAC! If I used flac, my music library (I guess "mp3 collection" will soon become a misnomer!) would be *enormous*! Yes, I realise it's lossless etc etc, but 320kpbs mp3s are close enough for me.
