LAME Ain't an MP3 Encoder.

Except that it is, now. The name describes it's original status as a
executive program that didn't actually perform the MP3 encoding it does
now.


"Following the great history of GNU naming, LAME originally stood for
LAME Ain't an Mp3 Encoder. LAME started life as a GPL'd patch against
the dist10 ISO demonstration source, and thus was incapable of producing
an mp3 stream or even being compiled by itself." (from
http://lame.sourceforge.net/about.php)
