Well, for one the freeware FOTAQ versions are -because of size (and 
thus bandwidth) considerations- only available with MP3 compression.
Besides that, it seems to be often asked about on irc. (for compilation 
discs and the like)
So it might not be a bad idea including it in the build. (Or if linking 
it in consumes too much precious memory, maybe supply 2 seperate 
builds?)
