Audacity requires lame to do mp3's.
It is easy if you have the correct repositories in your yum conf file.
Fedora/Red Hat is just playing it safe in the cases of legal
action. With mp3 being added by the user instead of RedHat, they
don't have to worry about being sued. I feel it also protects the
user better.

Microsoft has very deep pockets for licence fees as all the users pay
the fees when they purchase the software.
