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. |
