that example isnt relevant. notice how the description includes the word "prefer" and isnt just "enable mp3 support". USE=mp3 is how you get mp3 support. if there are multiple options (like ffmpeg or lame or mpg123 or something else), then USE=lame shows up to select one particular implementation over another. but it would still be: USE="mp3 lame" -mike
