This depends on what bitrate you encode at. Current CVS has 5 different
modes, the lowest of which averages around 128 kbps (it's VBR, so it
varies, but that's a typical average). At that rate, a 3 minute song would
come out as
        (3*60)*128*1024/8 = 2949120, or a little under 3 meg.

The highest bitrate mode is almost triple that, which would give a file of
about 8-9 meg.
