Renaming the file and having it work is a clue, thanks Jeff.
You can probably tell if it's an actual MP3 by the file size. Is it closer to 5 meg or 50?

As far as the LAME name, as an acronym it stands for Lame Ain't MP3 Encoder.
It was how they got around the patent that allowed them to exist. Thus the name.
It is actually quite a good codec.
