 I  had a quick google prior to posting my reply to see if I could
 point you at something.  The only link I found was here:

    http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/fuse/index.php?title=FileSystems

   "Yacufs is a virtual file system that is able to convert your files
   on-the-fly. It allows you to access various file types as a single
   file type. For instance you can access your music library containing
   .ogg, .flac and .mp3 files, but see them all as if being .mp3 files.
   "

  Unfortunately the link is dead, and the project appears to have
  disappeared.

  Still I don't think it would be too hard to do.  Perhaps my own
 simple starting guide will be useful:
