thats what i've been sayn before and i second this request with great
delight (not to be alone) once again. :)
also: if volumes of akai disks have the same name, the previous one will be
deleted (thats in pre 4.8 and i didnt test it in 5.2 , because of:

the way around:

keep the "akai samples" folder clean of direct subfolders.
after each import create a parend folder for all the sample folders
(volumes) of the cd and move them there,
do this for every cd.

and then: have logic rescan the whole thing at night. :)

But why does it have to be this way? Even the third-party conversion
programs that I use here are not very good in this respect...

Wouldn't it be much more organised to have a menu pop up to ask for
destination folders for both the instruments and samples?

You're anal, and very clever :)

They should fix this issue though....it should be automatic.

Call me anal, but I planned ahead. After each Akai CD convert, I'd go in to the
Akai Samples folder via the finder and manually create a master folder for the
CD I just converted; and then move all the foldres created by the convert
process into it. Neat and clean.

I'm just getting into this EXS thing, but I found a program last 
night that might help those of you trying to manage your EXS folder.  
It's called "EXS Manager", and you can find it at:
 
http://www.arcanoise.com/ExsManager/index.htm 

I'm in no way associated with this program, but in reading the 
details, it seems that it would help with organization.
