Thanks Matt for recommending SoundKonverter. I’m using it now, and while a bit slow on my “chocolate-in-your-peanut-butter” Ubuntu 9.04 (with heavy doses of KDE 3/4 installed already), it seems to be working better than WinFF or charging along on the command-line with FFMpeg did/would have done.

Cheers.

soundconverter can be found in applications -> add remove search for soundconverter, it works like a charm and you avoid console

Sound Converter works great through the GUI in Ubuntu, with only one downfall – it doesn't keep the ID3 tags. I have since looked around and found the app 'SoundKonverter' which ticked all the boxes for me. Sure it's a KDE app and requires the extra packages but it's well worth doing if you've already tagged all your files! SoundKonverter is available through Add/Remove or through terminal:
#> sudo apt-get install soundkonverter.

my sound converter required me to install gstreamer in order for conversion from wav to mp3 to take place. But when I try to convert wav to mp3, a blank mp3 file is produced. when I try to play the mp3 file with mplayer I get an error saying 'file contains no data'. can anyone help?
