I have not tried either it but it looks like what you are looking for.
The following command should convert all of your mp3's to wav's
> cd MyMusic
MyMusic> find . -print0 -name "*.mp3" | sed -e "s/\.mp3$//" | xargs
-0tI {} sox "{}.mp3" "{}.wav"
It is also possible to do with mplayer but it is a little more complex.
This would be useful only if you already have mplayer installed with mp3
support.
Just out of curiosity... why mp3->wav? Do you sell hard disks?
