Thanks guys, I thought as much but wanted to make sure.
I will likely stick with the venerable EAC/Lame combination for creating my MP3s (non Pro).
Personally I think that 64K sounding like 128 is still no use compared to VBR which gets to 320K if it needs to.
Although in MusicMatch I don't actually use the radio/internet/cddb/"now playing" features at all, I still love MusicMatch and will be using it for my PC based library and playlisting for quite a while yet.
It would be nice to have a 'lite' version that dropped all of the movie playing/ internet radio etc, but that doesn't sell new copies does it
