For what reason do you want this files to be mp3?

Listen in the car,
listen on phone,
listen in the gym,
listen on mp3-player,
listen while working,
listen while <insert any activity>.

At least, that's why I am interested :)

I never listen to the tracks outside the games. I have strong memory associations through music and I don't want to have the Unreal - any of the series - songs attached to any other time or place. So, if I want to hear the tracks, I have to play. Pretty good deal, IMO!

you should be able to use VLC media player to convert audio like OGG to MP3/4 or vica versa, although, why MP3? most players/phones/whatever supports OGG nowadays.

i'm not sure what control with VLC you have over the MP3 output, when I make MP3 files I always use features in Audition or other audio DAW because you can control the compression/quality and edit the internal info meta data, etc... OGG already has that iirc...

OGG has also a better sound quality.

Depends on the compression rate. Most .ogg music in UT already has some powerful compression, so above-average mp3 compression rate will give unnoticeable results.

That audio converter site just rang alarms in the WOT and Webutation browser plugins, so I grabbed a file and uploaded to Virus Total

Do not use that convertaudiofree site, or you will suffer with adware.
Never trust a site that splits such tasks into a multitude of individual programs. All they offer can be done with 1 or 2.
VLC can do the job but is a bit fiddly until you realise how it works.

I recommend you convert direct from the original UMX files to mp3
XMPlay is the best tool to render tracker modules into regular audio files. http://www.un4seen.com/xmplay.html#plugins
Audacity will read and write many formats if you install the MP3 and FFDShow libraries http://audacity.sourceforge.net/download/windows
Super, is one of the most complete all-in-one media converters http://www.erightsoft.com
Major Geeks, is one of the first sites I use to look for serious free tools http://www.majorgeeks.com/mg/sortname/multimedia.html
I use WinAmp to convert most formats, as it supports a huge amount, but mp3 writing needs a valid key.

(One of the main reasons OGG can support higher quality is the use of 24 bit)
