	Is there a way of using sox (or another translator) to turn HUGE  
	audio mp3 files into much much smaller files?  Say taking man mp3 
	files that are stored at 198k high fidelity and outputting these to 
	16k or 32k mp3 (or *.ogg or other format) audio files?

	thanks for any insights, sugggestions, or pointers,

	gary
