I just bought some presets for spire and started wondering...
I have a lot of loose SPF files of which they are tiny in file size, but now I seem to be getting SPF2 files which are a lot bigger.
An SPF is typically around 3.5kb where as an SPF2 is typically around 110kb...
So the questions started rolling in...
And here is where I though I would ask the community for a bit of advice.

Q1. As I understand it, SPF2 is the new format (correct?)
Q2. Is there a tool to bulk convert SPF to SPF2?
Or is there documentation somewhere that I can work out how to build a 3rd party tool to do this and process my entire library?
Q3. Is there a tool (not spire) to create an SBF, so I can bulk convert folders of SPFs to SBF?
Or again is there documentation somewhere that I can work out how to build a tool to do this?
Q4. Are SBF (spire banks capable of handling SPF2 data?) or do I need to do some kind of extraction and conversion on them also? Extract to single spf's and then convert to spf2s and then back to SBF or is there a update tool for SBF (with spf's in) to SBF (with spf2's in), or is SBF2 on the way? Or is it better to convert banks to loose SPF2 files?
Q5. Is SPF2 worth it? As SPF works just fine?
Some of the purchases I just made have both SPF and SPF2 zip files, is there a point in using the 10mb zip of SPF2s vs the 450kb zip of SPFs?
Thanks
