On that note, here is what i use to convert. Install ffmpeg and make 
sure it's in your PATH

========================= SNIP ================================

#!/bin/bash
# get_iplayer now saving as m4a
# Allow for a different source directory but still place conversions in current dir
working_dir=.
if [ $# -eq 1 ]
then
     working_dir=$1
fi
for f in "$working_dir"/*.m4a
do
     # Don't attempt to encode files already processed
     echo "Processing $f..."
     test -f "$f.mp3" || ffmpeg -i "$f" $(basename "$f").mp3
done
