Most of my music files i ripped in Apple Lossless - which is what i want. New Laptop, default in itunes set to non-applelosses formats over past year or two - i didn't notice. Now have 150 cd's that i am ready to re-rip with my nimbie ripping station (which is fast). Problem i'm seeing is - since these cd's are already in my external hard drive music folder - when i rip them in apple lossless - then that album folder has two versions the lower grade file, and now my new apple lossless rip. So i need to figure out most efficient way of addressing this - i'm using DBPoweramp batch ripper. I wish there was a way to tell it to replace. My alternative is to go in and delete the 150 cd's that i'm about to rip, then re-rip them.
Is this the best way to do this, or is there another method that's faster?
If i delete the 150 cd's first do i do it from itunes or from the music folder - i tried from the folder and then itunes can't find it, don't want to have to tell it to 'find' each of the 150 cds manually. Alternatively i can delete from itunes - but will that delete them also from the music folder - which i need to do so i don't duplicate when i re-rip. - thank yoU!!!
