Unfortunately, this one isn't going to fly as is. In the code, it includes an
mp3 encoder and decoder (code copied from lame), which is patent encumbered and
non-permissable in Fedora.

In order to make this acceptable for Fedora, you'd have to modify the source
code such that it is no longer able to encode or decode in mp3 format, then
make a new, mp3-free, tarball and use that for the base of the SRPM.

I understand that may be too much of an inconvenience, so instead, you might
consider submitting this package to rpmfusion (http://rpmfusion.org/).

As for the package itself, I think it is acceptable in principle.
