I tried, but Terminal gave me me this error:

You either didn't install the BSD subsystem or developer tools.

Find your 10.3 install discs and the Xcode install disc. Do some installing.

Or, check Rarewares, and look under the MP3 section . Roberto was so kind as to upload a compile of 3.96 a few weeks ago for me, and I plan on compiling new versions as they become available.

Also, www.blacktree.com has a free app. called iTunes LAME that can be downloaded with 3.90.3 or 3.95.1. If you aren't interested in using LAME w/ iTunes, you can grab a copy of the LAME executable by CTRL-clicking on the package (library/itunes/scripts/itunes lame), then navigate: show package contents->contents->resources->LAME.

Cygnus X1,

Is this the right file: http://www.rarewares.org/files/mp3/lame3.96.zip ?
Can't find any other, but that .zip ending makes me think that it is for Windows...

.zip is as multiplatform compression format as you can get.

No one seemed to clarify that you do have to either install the developer tools or download and install the gcc c++ binaries to compile any program

If you have lame installed into your system then iTunes-LAME automatically uses it instead of the built-in LAME. Try sticking the binary in /usr/local/bin. Check the script about box to see which version is being used.

When you install the Developer tools you get the gcc compiler as one of the additions, as well as AppleScript Studios and a few other cool utilities that are a great asset to the OS
