Perhaps that's what I want, but I'm 99% certain I apt-got something
that does this, and lame isn't apt-able (well not from normal sources)
:Better is to use the ogg format instead of mp3. Ogg is free.
:It is also said to be technically better. Install vorbis-tools.
I did run across that, where "technically better" == lossless
For my current streaming purposes I converted the files to realaudio
(even worse than mp3 from a freesoftware perspective), I'll need to
review ogg support in main stream clients before comitting...
And it hurts my brain that I did this less than two weeks ago and
can't find the tool I used.
