Wow, thanks for the reply! And thank you for the original article--I found myself nodding in agreement many times while reading it.

Of course, even with your non-cringing approval, I certainly had lots of shell escaping to do with these files (and many others--my collection is approaching 10,000 audio files from almost 900 music CDs).
