calum.It doesn't take MORE work, as I have not done any work in the first

I think the claim is that you lose a little: the ability to re-create
the original raw CD image, with pre-gap info. Of course, that's not a
disaster...
advantage is that I have all the files individually named and tagged,
when I look at an album I see it as I would had I just ripped it myself.
Funny; I look in the cue file for that, and see it all there, and I find
that easier.
I've no idea how you would use a single FLAC/CUE file in conjunction
with random play if you wanted each track to appear in the initial
playlist - can it be done?
I'm far from an LMS expert, but I see no difference at all, within LMS,
between albums I've ripped since flac+cue, and those in individual MP3
files. Everything I can do with the latter I can do with the former.
i.e. LMS hides what you might call the "storage implementation", and
presents you with artists/albums/tracks.
Not that I'm going to change - it works
perfectly how I do it :)
Yes, of course!
And clearly, it doesn't work quite correctly the way I'm doing it :)
Mind you, there are loads of threads on here relating to functionality
of the Touch that I'll never, ever use - people seem to want bells and
whistles in every aspect, whereas I just want to play my playlists via
my main Hi-Fi - horses for courses!
yes indeed :)
