Hi Paul, If you're looking for simple conversion of ogg to mp3 on the Mac, Erik's suggestion of Max will probably work for you: http://sbooth.org/Max/ Max is donationware. But Eric Caron is correct that Amadeus Pro or its Lite version has a powerful batch processor that will also handle many functions besides simple conversions (e.g., fades, adding/trimming silence, conversion of sound quality, normalization, and lots more). This shareware audio editing program had a recent major upgrade, so the price is now $60. If you want to try the trial version, just Google the name together with macupdate, which will give you the link to the program and the web site. (It's also sold on the Mac App Store, but trial downloads are not supported in the App Store). The Blind Cool Tech podcast on batch processing with Amadeus Pro is Dane's podcast from two years earlier.
HTH.
