Should I buy a new JRiver license to get 350 CDs to Itunes?

 Several years ago I loaded all my CDs onto my PC hard drive thru JRiver to enter this brave new world. Then I forgot all about it.

Now I'm becoming too crippled to leap up every twenty minutes to feed the turntable.

My kids have put me on their Imusic family account and got me a Miccus to play through my analog rig.

Can I load these APE files into Itunes from JRiver then control from the IPhone. I've Googled just that but the answers are all written in Ones and Zeros and mystifying.

 No, this has nothing to do with JRiver.
Unfortunately there are a lot of audio formats not supported by iTunes and APE is one of them.
Find a converter able to convert APE to ALAC and you can import them in iTunes

 If you purchase dBpoweramp you can use its batch converter to convert your .ape files to whatever format you would like, for example apple lossless.

 Well you can already control your music files on JRiver from your i-phone by downloading JRiver.

If you still need to convert the files to transfer them to i-tunes then I support the idea of using DBPoweramp and its batch converter.
