Thats why I added a 3rd harddrive to hold all my lossless encodes.
IMHO I don't care for any preset settings in most encoders when using Lame Vbr. 9 times out of 10 they are outdated in a month, and stay that way for much longer. For best quality command lines and a frontend encoder are the way to go. Reasoning is most presets in encoders have only a few settings "low/med/high" etc. And a Min and Max bitrate option is far to vague even with a nominal setting.
Command lines give you so much more options and configuration while letting Lame decide how much is needed and where.
http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/ is probably one of the best audio related sites out there for all types of audio encoding.
