Music on Fedora

I got the Eraserheads 'The Reunion Concert' CD from an officemate for Christmas. I promptly burned it to my hard disk using Soundjuicer.

The tracks got saved as FLAC, which unfortunately is not usable for iPods, and I had to convert it to MP3. Fedora, by default, does not include non-free plugins. To convert the ripped files to MP3:

sudo yum install gstreamer-plugins-bad flac lame
cd ~/Music/Eraserheads
for f in *.flac; do $(flac -cd "$f" | lame -h - "${f%.flac}.mp3"); done

I then edited the ID3 tags through Rhythmbox. Next stop, transfer the files to the iPod.
