To my surprise the above does work on windows/cygwin I have been using faad -w aacfile | lame ... up to now - for historical reasons - (SBR not implemented error) see http://linuxcentre.net/bbc-iplayer-aac-radio-streams-now-available-using-get_iplayer . Anyway ... I just did a rough experiment and faad seems to be about 2 times slower than ffmpeg. BTW I use lame --abr 56 for spoken word programs - the files come out half as big as with -b 128.
