I did have about 500 ape files, untill one day I was convering my APE collection to 128k MP3 files for my portable. I didn't realise I had the option ""After Sucessful Operation : Permanently Erase Source Files" option selected in Monkey's Audio.
So I ended up with a bunch of 128k mp3 files instead of my nice lossless collection.
The file name are exactly the same, just .ape extension instead of .mp3
This would help me have my old collection back 100% as it was.
