Purge uses EXTENDED REGULAR EXPRESSION syntax, same as in Squid, similar
to emacs, similar to Perl, see "man regex" and companions on your system.

What you look for is "\.mp3$", using backslash to escape the period and
you need quotes to escape the backslash from the shell. You also want
being *not* case-sensitive, since many windoze systems store them with all
caps ending. You only want things ending in mp3 to be shown, so $ for
that.

        purge -e '\.mp3$'
