Mp3s can indeed be both created and played with tools

libraries). One such tool that can do both is Audacity (see
[[Audacity]] on de:, en:, fr:, nl:, pl:, or zh:; Debian package 'audacity').
But the user has to download and install the LAME libraries manually,
because they can't be distributed with Debian. Yes, users are off the
hook, but distributors still have restrictions.
