duplicate album: return information about file format and encoding

[daks]

Hi,

i'm testing beets to import several parts of my collection. One of its characteristic is that sometimes I have multiple versions of the same album: generally a FLAC version and a OGG or MP3 one.
When I import, beets warns me about the album been already present, but I miss the media format information so, if the MP3 album is in there, I could overwrite it when the FLAC version comes.

Do you thing this functionality could be added to beets?

By the way, thanks for this program.

Certainly! We’ve been discussing a similar set of features in issue #116:
#116
It would be great to have your thoughts there if you’d like to leave a comment.
