Btw; I added mpg123 support for my not-yet-released hard-disk recording 
software and it can now use mp3 files as inputs. The fun part is that 
you can process the audio in realtime as with any other file format. :) 
Don't know how useful this is, but you can mix multiple mp3 files together, 
add filters, reverbs, etc and use various controllers (oscillators, 
MIDI-controllers, etc) to spice up your mp3s. Anyway, mail me 
if you're interested. There's still a lot of work to be done, but I might
consider releasing some mp3-mangling-alpha versions if there's interest.
