Bash script for files with spaces in the filenames

Another friend has provided me with a simple bash script that performs
an operation on all the files of a directory. However, many of the
file names contain spaces. How can I modify the following code to work
on files with spaces? The directory is on a mounted FAT32 partition.
#!/bin/bash
PWD=`pwd`
for file in `find $PWD -name "*.mp3"`
do
eyeD3 --force-update --set-encoding=utf8 "$file"
done
I had considered converting the spaces to underscores, but that would
upset the delicate wife/linux balance in our household.
Thank you.
