Today I decided that I am done putting up with my 80 GB iPod Classic (Gen 6). This device is so slow it's frightening. It literally takes 5 seconds to pause a song. On top of that, iTunes, which is likely the most horrendously inefficient media software ever created, now takes a solid 20 seconds to launch as of its latest update.
My concern is format. Unfortunately, my entire CD collection is ripped in ALAC (thanks again iTunes), I would like to convert this format to another lossless format that I can play on a Cowon S9. I am also mildly obsessive compulsive about my music's organization on the hard drive. Is there a software solution available to me that can automate this process and keep the music organized?
As far as organizing the music on the player, is MediaMonkey a good option?
