  On a related note, you can use ffmpeg to the same effect. Here’s the text snippet that will do the job fine :

  ffmpeg -i VIDEO_FILE -acodec libmp3lame OUTPUT.MP3

  That command will extract audio stream from the input file, convert it into mp3 and dump it into OUTPUT.MP3. You can change te codec to produce output in different formats
