I hope this is the right place for this...

I use Squeezebox Server to play my iTunes library from my Mac (Snow
Leopard) to my Squeezebox Classic (it wasn't "classic" when I got it...)
over a wireless network. I have LAME installed because I understand I
need that to play my AAC tracks. But I've noticed recently in Activity
Monitor that the 'lame' process can take up something like 50-60% of my
CPU. Even if I'm not playing anything at the moment, even if the
Squeezebox is turned off, 'lame' will still be there using up lots of
cycles. 

So I guess my question is twofold: do I still really need to use LAME?
And is there a way to set the server software to quit LAME when it's not
needing it anymore?
