Yes, it can take a lot of time to re-convert your collection.  My 
wife was looking at me warily last night when I started pulling out 
the CD books.  :)

You can determine the encoding method of a track by enabling the 
"Kind" column - MP3's are displayed as "MPEG Audio File" and AAC's 
are displayed as "AAC Audio File".  I've also created a smart 
playlist that I've set to display "Kind contains MPEG".  That way I 
can easily see what albums are still unconverted.

>BTW, Jeremy,  I have been a longtime user of your CSM's. great job!

Thanks!  I do miss them in OS X...

Sincerely,

Jeremy Kezer
