It would take way more time for me to decide which tracks I wanted to convert to MP3 than it does to just convert the whole thing, which dBpoweramp or flac2mp3.pl can do completely unattended. I have a hard enough time choosing what subset of my MP3 library I want to put on my portable players. Deciding in advance which ones I wanted to convert to MP3 would only add another step to process -- disk space and CPU cycles are much cheaper than my time.
