requesting script for compressing mp3 files recursively using ffmpeg

^ no, laserbeak, it's even simpler than that; i input some appropriate search terms into my favorite search engine (i believe it was "linux ffmpeg recursive transcode") and it is right there, first search result, with a code example so i don't even have to click the link.

edit: granted, not everyone uses duckduckgo (maybe they should) and google probably doesn't include code examples in its results. but first search result nevertheless.

And if you want us to make it (which I might after intentionally waiting 4 or so months), give us a sample path to an MP3 you want to transcode, and a sample path to where it would be after you've finished transcoding it.

And, again: let us know if any of those paths have spaces.
