There will be data loss in converting from mp3 to ogg format because mp3 is
already using lossy compression. You want to ogg the original source data,
although a 44.1 KHz .wav file is basicly raw PCM audio plus a header, anyway.
Anyway, look for something called sox, which is a good sound format converter
utility.
