that above is pure nonsense anyways
you could also do "mv music.wav upload.mov"

why?
because you only have a audio-track, tell ffmpeg to not touch it and 
write it into a file with a different extension - a little bit overhead 
using ffmpeg for a simple file-rename

you need a video too for youtube
