OK...  Thanks...  I may just make the payment...  It seems like a
payment-worthy product...

On the split directory front, this is what I ended up having to
do...It's not ideal...but it works:

All shared files are still in my original directory with the
artist/album directory structures...  This includes all the old DRM
protected iTunes tracks in an "iTunes" directory that is at the same 1st
level sub-directory as my Artists.

All my FLAC files were in a main directory with it's own artist/album
sub-directory structure...  I have since had to move the entire FLAC
directory into my original directory...  So now my FLAC directory is now
at the same level as my iTunes and artist sub-directories.  I now point
SqueezeCenter at this big shared directory.

My FLAC transcoded to MP3 files are now in a directory outside of this
main directory.  I don't have iTunes monitoring any directories...  Each
time I have new music, I use the <file> <add new directory>...  So
everytime I add mirrored music, I simply add that sub-directory within
this mirrored directory.

So basically I have two main directories now...  A main one with FLAC
and shared lossy files; and one with the lossy versions of my lossy
files.  It works great.  It's just not as intuitive or structured as I
would like it to be...
