I've considered this approach; there is some other package that's been
mentioned on these forums whose name I cannot currently recall that
does this as well.  However, my feeling is that doing this on-the-fly
transcoding when copying to a portable (or other) drive will be
considerably slower than just keeping the second library and doing a
straight-up copy.  When I want to copy files to my portable for a hike
or an impromptu road trip, time is of the essence: I want to browse and
choose my music, copy, and go.  I'm already spending 300-400M per CD for
my FLAC copy.  Another 40-60M for MP3 isn't adding that much and storage
is cheap.
