You do realise that converting from mp3 to FLAC is pointless? Mp3 is lossy and converting to a lossless format like FLAC will not improve the sound. Unless you have the original source CD to re-rip from there is no point. You may as well just keep the files as mp3. LMS will read them fine (if they are tagged properly) and will play them at their original resolution. If you have the source CD re-rip to FLAC is definitely the way to go.
