Well, with mp3 license problems, it's one of the safest path.
Most GPL products go now in that way.  Linux, KDE ..
Right now, any mp3 encoder is threaded.  It's not only lame.
And problems with mp3 decoders are not closed.

Yes.  Right Now, all is mp3.  But if you want digital music in your pc 
next year from packages,  better have ogg/vorbis and vorbis-tools 
(encoder) everywhere.

About cdparanoia.  I'm using it in every app related to CD music.  It 
works as good as cdrecord's cdda2wav and don't need special rights.

Well, this is more a personal taste.
