Lame is an open source application used to encode audio into the MP3 file format.

Lame was created by Mike Cheng in 1989, it is a recursive acronym for:

Lame Ain’t an MP3 Encoder

The acronym reflects the early history when it was not an encoder but a set of patches against the freely available ISO demonstration source code.

Now that is a MP3 encoder the LAME acronym has become a misnomer.
