Justin and all,
If you go to iTunes->Preferences->Advanced->Importing you can change
the encoding to MP3, and, in the quality pop up button, you can choose
"Custom…" to set some more advanced options for the encode. It works
fine to go from AIFF to MP3, which I do frequently, or just about
anything else you want. This is the simplest, and best way of doing
this, IMO, if you just need to simply make an AIFF or similar file to
MP3.

I have never successfully made itunes do such a conversion. It is
funny how the convert to AAC option becomes available when you are
using AAC files, and the convert to mp3 becomes available when you
are working with mp3 files. A bit redundant really but if someone
has some input on this, I certainly would be interested to hear it.
I have never had problems with hit/miss/anything else with switch.
Only thing that is sort of annoying is when it is doing conversions
it is really slow and gives the busy signal alot, but it does not
effect my other programs at all and it gets the job done pretty
well. I like that I can do flac and ogg files.
