I had to do this the other day, but the other way round, M4A's -> OGG's.
Simple bash script should do it:
#!/bin/sh
# pipe a list of files into the loop
find ./ | grep .*ogg |while read file ; do
# get the file name
name=`basename "$file" .ogg`
# used oggdec to decode the ogg to wav
oggdec -o temp.wav "$file"
# encode the wav to an mp3 with lame
lame temp.wav "$name.mp3"
done
rm temp.wav
However remember it will not copy the tags over :(
This site has some decent stuff on it:
