This seems, to me, like it might be the biggest (perhaps only real) 
drawback of single file-per-CD flac + separate cue.

Having to decompress/decode to WAV, to extract the track needed, then 
recode it back to FLAC again, albeit at the lowest/fastest compression 
level, seems rather wasteful.


Presumably, when using file-per-track flac, the file is just streamed 
directly to the Squeezebox, without any transformation whatsoever?


thanks,
calum.
