A separate package (a la multi-package) is created for mp3's unless 'no_mp3'
is expressedly stated.  Just look in your /usr/ports/packages/i386/All subdir.

| Cool, thanks... but one more question, possibly and probably stupid. 
| When I check the FLAVOR's, they are no_gnome no_esd no_vorbis no_mikmod
