That's a pretty impressive command line, but I just found out that it could be done with just 'amp -w mp3name'. (Amp is also available as a deb package). However, that doesn't work with the mp3 I wanna do it with (the file is kind of bad). Anyway, the issue is no longer relevant (for me). The reason I brought this up is that a user on my system wants to play an mp3 at X startup, but the MP3 was bad, so I thought I could convert it to wav and play it w/ 'play'. But amp could handle the buggy MP3, so I didn't have to.
