Not as yet (at least, not to my knowledge). Hopefully soon. I rip my CDs in FLAC format and then have Winamp convert them to WMA or MP3 (depending on which device I'll be putting them on). With the FLAC plugin to Winamp, I can queue my entire collection, select the codec and bitrate of the final file and hit <PLAY>. It converts them all very quickly (although unfortunately it won't replicate my file folder structure unless I convert them one album at a time).
Which makes me wonder why Nullsoft has not developed a Pocket Winamp... It seems like name recognition alone ought to make it worthwhile. Seems like they might be missing the boat. Of course, not having to concentrate on a mobile version probably allows them to concentrate fully on their desktop version...
