If the song length information is accurate, you can do it all in one batch
run:

--cut--
ecasound -i radio_show.wav -y:0.000 -o track01.mp3 -t:60.000
ecasound -i radio_show.wav -y:60.000 -o track02.mp3 -t:60.000
ecasound -i radio_show.wav -y:300.000 -o track03.mp3 -t:60.000
...
--cut---

So '-y:seconds' specifies the starting offset inside the big wave file,
while '-t:seconds' is used to set the overall processing time. As the mp3
output files are new files, they start from position 0.000.
