Hey!
I searched the forum but couldn't really find much on this:
If I convert from flac, wma or wav (haven't tried anything else but assume it's the same) to mp3, set to delete the source, but there is already a destination file of the same name that I want to overwrite, it doesn't delete the source. For example (and kinda explaining why):

I have two files in a dir:
song1.mp3 (at 128Kbps) (old recording)
song1.wma (at 320Kbps) (fresh recording)

And I want to convert the new song1.wma to MP3 at 320Kbps (to work in my car), overwriting the old file and deleting the source, I end up with:

song1.mp3 (at 320Kbps)
song1.wma (at 320Kbps)

It's not a tremendous problem, but would save me a lot of searching and hunting for any files I haven't recorded in higher bit-rate WMA. If I just delete all MP3s manually, I may lose some files I haven't got the original for to re-rip.
