you think it should be LGPL? why? @shanewho @Dewsworld

I am using a different library for converting mp3. This lib is lighter and simpler, was hoping to use in our project if all our requirements satisfy... I'm no expert in license either. Just to clarify if it's okay to use in our project.

I think it has to be LGPL because LAME is LGPL and so is jump3r-code. LGPL requires derivative work to be licensed under the same license. Here is the note in the license:

http://lame.sourceforge.net/license.txt

3. If you make modifications to LAME, you *must* release these
   modifications back to the LAME project, under the LGPL.

I would probably just copy the LICENSE file from the java code in your src/main/java/LICENSE to the root of your repository:

https://github.com/zhuker/lamejs/blob/master/src/main/java/LICENSE

@Dewsworld - use at will, just mention you are using it, reference lamejs and lame somewhere and if you change it (like fix a bug) make your change available for everybody.
