SoX (it is in synaptic) I am not sure, but I think it is as easy as: sox file.ogg file.mp3 If you have a lot of files: find . -name \*.ogg -print -exec sox {} {}.mp3 \; it will make file.ogg.mp3 for every file.ogg (could be that you have to install mp3 support somehow, don't know about thay.) -- UbuWu
