If you like hacking around in the terminal, the Sox package in macports will do the job as well. Once installed you just do:

sox inputfile.mp3 outputfile.ogg

you could even do a shell script to bulk convert some files. Here's one I found on another forum:

for i in $(ls *.mp3 | sed -e s/\.mp3$//); do sox $i.mp3 $i.ogg; done

Basically it gets a list of all the mp3 files in the directory and strips off the file ending to get just the file name. Then it loops through each of the filenames and converts it from mp3 to ogg.

Max is at www.sbooth.org/max.HTML
Or a Google search for sbooth max or max CD ripper download will find it.

Otherwise I can drop box it when I get to a computer.

Yes, I'm definitely aware of that.



Sadly it's the only format that a friend I have will take, *grumbles*



Max? Is that the full name?

Hi.  Max and switch will both do this.  Having said that, converting between 
lossie formats is very
hard on sound quality and not recommended.

Subject: converting mp3 to ogg


Is there a program out there that will convert mp3's to ogg's?




The ones I'm finding aren't quite voiceover friendly, so figured I'd come ask 
around.
