Huh? I'm using ffmpeg regularly to convert from mp4 or flv _to_ mp3,
this works quite well. Maybe you need to install an additional encoder,
plugin, or library if you're lacking mp3 support?

	% ffmpeg -i example.flv example.mp3

It does what it says on the can. Works for years. :-)

With ffmpeg's mp3 support, you should be able to convert from flac
or ape in a similar manner.

Additionally, mencoder might have the ability to convert from flac
or ape to mp3, as it usually can read and write any format. Even
though mencoder is primarily intended for multimedia use (video
and audio), it can process "just audio" as well.
