Goldwave is not free, but you can control the size of the files when converting 
from MP3 to OGG.  Just don't make them too small or you won't be able to tell s 
from f.  But if you pick a setting from about the lower middle, you should be 
ok.

  I use a program called Switch to convert ogg to mp3 quite successfully, but 
yes it does double the size of the file at least.  It works great though.  I am 
able to transfer my downloaded books to Book Courier, which makes them portable 
with no need to burn a bunch of CDs.

    Hi Wil, 
    No, but I wish it would, and I don't see why it shouldn't, since ogg is 
open source. The problem is, every utility that I've found that converts ogg to 
mp3 converts it in such a way that the file size is double. 
    www.dbpoweramp.com 
    free and easy to use, just rightclick on you ogg file and choose 'convert 
to,' but you must download the lame mp3 encoder, but it gives you that option. 
    Ari
