Thanks sir, very detailed and clear explanations.  I am now able to have
both iTunes ALAC and FLAC in the same library.  I am slowly rebuilding
my library to suit both Mac and Squeezebox now.  This will be another
year long project!

My library is 10's of thousands of tracks, my Macbook Pro is reasonably
loaded with 8GB of RAM and not too many processes running.  Network is
gigabit Ethernet for devices that support it, including my QNAP and WD
NAS and the Macbook Pro server, the Touch I assume is 100Mbps Fast
Ethernet.  

Access to the server was slow from the very first scan after the server
install.  And it times out even when browsing through
http://Localhost:9000 so I don't think this is solely a Touch issue.

Anyway I am trying to organize and build up my library from scratch,
adding albums back to iTunes one by one, separating FLAC and ALAC and
DSD files for the Mac.  The library seems very happy so fat with about
5000 tracks, rescan of 5-10 new albums take about 1-2 minutes.  So
instead of asking LMS to scan a huge directory structure of 1000's of
sub-folders, I think I will manually manage and select folders as I
proceed.

Thanks again for your help.
