Anyone know of a tool that can compare the FLAC file MD5 signature
obtained from the STREAMINFO block?  

Over the years I've sometimes ripped different versions of an album and
not named them well enough to make them uniquely identifiable.  To add
to that, whilst I've got two backups of every album ripped, I've done a
lot of tag editing and file renaming on my library residing on a NAS and
never refreshed the backups.  Finally, as my NAS ran out of room I
sometimes cycle in/ out portions of my library from the backups.  The
end result of the above is that 1) my backups are effectively out of
date and I'd like to bring them back in line 2) not all albums on the
backups are present on the NAS, and 3) matching filenames is not a good
way to go to ensure I don't end up with two or more copies of an album
in a single folder simply because the filenames differ.

So, before I embark on a massive "copy/replace all older files"
operation from the NAS to the backups I'd like to match the MD5
signature obtained from the STREAMINFO block so that I know I'm updating
like with like and can manually deal with matching audio streams
encapsulated in different files.
