Kevin and others;

Goldwave is probably the best choice for this.  Once you have gw 
installed you can press alt-f for file and down arrow to batch.  Here 
you can pick from several files at a time or a whole directory including 
sub directories if you want.  Tab to the save as format and choose your 
format.  I'm assuming you will be converting ogg to mp3 like the subject 
says, so since you picked all your ogg files to convert you now pick the 
mp3 from the list to save to.  The next tab is so you can pick the 
quality of the mp3 file.  I believe the default is 44.1 khz 128 kbps 
 stereo quality.

A note to remember is when converting from one format to another the 
file must be decompressed and recompressed.  This results in some 
quality loss.  If your ogg files are at q3 which is on average 112 kbps 
then I recommend saving them in mp3 form at a higher rate to try and 
lose as little quality as possible.  In this example you would want to 
save as 128 kbps mp3.  Even though the mp3 bitrate is highter than the 
ogg bitrate it does not mean you are really getting 128 kbps because it 
initially was at 112 kbps.

Once you pick the options you may want to control-tab and see the other 
options.  The second tab control is for adding effects which I don't 
think you want to do with a simple file conversion.  The third tab 
control is the folder to save your work in.  By default it will save it 
in the same folder as the original files.  You can choose another folder 
from here.  The fourth and last tab control is the info tab.  Here you 
can either leave all tag data the same or you can set it to something 
specific.  Once you choose everything you want to do you tab to the 
begin button and press space.  Leave your computer alone for a bit while 
it does it and bingo.

Hope this helps.
