Personally I don't like transcoding from MP3 to other formats because |
| 9 |
of the quality loss. That said: you can do a lot with 'sox' |

And if you want it in some format sox cannot deal with, you can always |
| 25 |
convert first to wav/aiff/raw and convert again to your target format |
| 26 |
with usually no additional quality loss. |

Q: "What is the best way to determine the volume of a little red |
| 31 |
ball." |
| 32 |
A: Physicist: Measure the diameter, devide by two for radius and use |
| 33 |
the formula 4/3 * PI * radius ^ 3 |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
A: Chemist: Take a beaker, fill it with water. Dunk the ball in it, |
| 36 |
and measure the amount of water displaced. |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
A: Engineer: It's easy, just pull out the "Little Red Ball" book and |
| 39 |
look it up. |
