flac2mp3
This script converts flac files to mp3 files, using flac, metaflac and lame. It accepts both individual files and directories, and supports keeping the tags, uncommon characters in filenames and "file://"-URLs (for drag 'n drop). It also features progress indication. For installation instructions, see the post Solution: Converting flac to mp3 advanced (supports drag 'n drop).

Hi, the link to your script is wrong. I found the link below. Is this the correct one?

Thanks for this great script! Works flawless!
Glad you like it!
magic! thanx a lot.
Hi, great script! I ran it just as ./flac2mp3 * and it worked well. My only suggestion would be to set the default bitrate higher--the difference in quality between 128 and 192 is vast, and if you've got a bunch of flac files sitting around, you probably care about sound quality enough that 128 is too low. (Changing the default bitrate, of course, was easier than typing out this comment.)
Again, thanks for the script!
