Yes, I do it as I go, but it's a management thing. Let's say I rip a
couple of albums tonight into FLAC. I could load up dbP, find the
albums I just ripped (assuming I remember which ones they were), hit
convert and wait. Or I could just double-click the icon on my desktop
which runs flac2mp3.pl and then leave it alone in the background - it
figures out what needs to be done. Or lets say I notice a typo and fix
it on a couple of FLAC files - again just a quick double click and the
mp3s are updated to match. Or how about I'm playing with the endless
Compilation and Album Artist permutations :) Change the FLACs, run the
script, done. To me that's easier that pretty much anything else, and I
know with 100% certainty that all my mp3 files are consistent.

I'm sure it could. But Robin kindly did all the work so I don't have to
:)  If dbp had a built in "sync this directory to this directory,
converting/updating as needed" function then maybe I'd use it, but I
don't want to write one myself when I already have it in perl.
