It usually makes more sense to use existing tools, than to turn a basic
tool into a swiss army knife.

Use rsync to mirror the extra (meta) files that you want.  Eg:


Code:
--------------------
    
  rsync  -av   --include "*/"  --include "*.txt" --exclude "*" 
--prune-empty-dirs ~/Music/ ~/MP3s/
  
--------------------


Change ~/Music above to the root of your FLACs, and ~/MP3s to the root
of your MP3s.  The command above will mirror all .txt files.  The nice
thing about using existing tools is that you can easily add additional
options, such as jpgs (above, adding an extra --include rule).

Be sure you see my edit above.
