Mirroring files and folder structures.

I have all my music as FLAC files at home, but run a Subsonic server for me to access the MP3 files at work. I run a dedicated NAS for this, and as I rip albums/convert them to FLAC for archival purposes I convert them to MP3 for my Subsonic server. Now comes my challenge. I have created a folder structure based on genres, such as Jazz, Hip-hop 90s, Pop 80s, etc. I move the FLAC files to these folders when I find the time, and I was wondering if there is an easy, wild-card driven, program that lets me move the MP3 files to mirror the structure of my FLAC folders, so I dont have to do this process twice (first moving the FLAC files to each respective folder, then do the same with the MP3 files). So, the FLAC structure (folders containin FLAC files) are the same as the folders containing Mp3 files. Any suggestions? When I rip something to FLAC I put the files in an "unsorted" folder, and move them to the respective folders later on.

If someone has a better idea on my structure Id love to hear it, Im kind of alone here, and this is the best solution I have devised for myself.

The last time I used Media Monkey it did offer the option of filtering things out. So I was wondering: wouldn't simply being able to filter MP3s out first and re-arrange them then FLACs files later meet your needs somehow?

Listen to the music, not the media it's on.
