Hi Angie, I use amadeus pro all the time. I don't know if you ever used it, but if you already bought it it's a breeze. Just hit command shift n after you start amadeus pro, and a new batch converter window will appear. You have a formats tab, where you set what you want your new files to become, in yor case mp3. You also set the mp3 encoding settings in this tab. In the actions tab, you can pick actions to be performed on the files, like normalization if you want, before being converted. In the other 2 tabs, you can instruct amadeus what to do with meta info such as the file tag and its art work, or you can leave that out altogether if you wish, on your to be created mp3 files. Then when you point to a folder to convert, it can also recursively search that folder for all the files it contains, and then do them all in one simple go. You can also tell amadeus to convert a folder, and put all new files in the same location as their originals, and then deleting the originals. If you know what you are doing this can be a breeze. Once you are familiar with the little interface in the batch converter in amadeus pro, you will love it.
If you don't have amadeus then I hope others will chime in on this. Hth, Paul.
