I deal with that stuff (linux and various flavors, like AIX) at work all day.  
While there are some hints best suited for a command line, give me a GUI any 
day, thank you.

I was able to get Max to run it by opening the CUE file with Max, rather than 
just dropping the whole folder on the app.  I guess there must have been 
something that prevented Max from reading the CUE file properly.

And now Joe Cocker's Greatest hits is in my library at a much higher bit rate 
and not compressed....

Thanks!

Dan
