[lug] volume level in mp3/ogg files

[John Hernandez]

I don't know of any way to do it without going back to the original wav 
source and re-encoding.

One slick way would be to write a script using 'sox stat -v ...' 
followed by 'sox vol ... | oggenc - -o ...' to automatically maximize 
the volume without clipping and then encode on the fly.
