There is no good reason to use VBR files. There's plenty of applications to cross-encode, even iTunes can convert them for you.

So I saw a lot of older post stating VBR's are a bad match with CDJ's. But it's the year 2018 now and I wonder if there are still troubles with VBR. And if so, what is the best recent tool to batch convert those files?

Two reasons:
- The collection I have contains a lot of VBR's (unfortunately)
- VBR to 320 will casue quality loss (transcoding from lossy to lossy)
You won't "lose" any quality by cross-converting to the highest-quality CBR, and there are tools (including iTunes) that can batch-convert.
