The license of LAME is available with the source. As long as you comply
with it, all is fine. We can't hand out other license terms without the
OK of all people with a copyright on a part of the source (a lot of
people which we may not even know how to contact anymore).

I'm not sure if you can create an app which complies with the (L)GPL
and the Apple App Store license terms (you better ask a lawyer).

Apart from that see also the info about the patents in another mail.

Bye,
Alexander.
