That could be, but it depends on how the CUE sheet is interpreted by
the playback software.  I don't think SlimServer introduces any
gaps/silence between tracks, so unless it appends or prepends the gap
from the CUE sheet, you'd potentially have unrelated tracks running
into each other.  Is that desirable?

The only advantages that I can think to using images plus CUE sheets is
that it's fewer files to manage and it may make burning an exact copy of
the original CD a bit more foolproof.
