 I tried. Couldn’t. Don’t have the time, plus I really really don’t want
 to, nor should I have to learn how to compile anything. There should very
 clearly be a pre-built binary to do something as simple as converting PCM
 to HE-AAC. It’s not an other worldly thing to do, and if ffmpeg costed 60
 bucks because of it, I’d happily pay that. It’s not the users fault if
 they simply for one reason or another can’t build a program, and that
 mindset is just ignorant if anything, let alone not helpful to anyone. I
 don’t care if something is “technically illegal”, I need to get stuff done
 without having to learn a million new concepts, following confusing guides
 that don’t even work when they’re done, and doing this unsuccessfully for
 WEEKS like I’ve been doing.

 “Just” is a four letter word. If you’re saying “just”, it’s probably not
 that easy, or I would have god damn done it. I’ve been trying to learn how
 to compile, I’ve even gotten people to help me IRL, but we ALL are having
 problems, so I know it’s not just me.

 This should be remedied, and I can’t believe I actually have to bring this
 shizz to someone’s attention, not everyone can “just” compile stuff. Most
 people aren’t that advanced, but some of those people NEED a tool like
 ffmpeg.

 Ok I kinda went off the deep end, I hate when people don’t have reasonable
 expectations, it makes everything so much harder.
