+Q. Why do I get .aac files instead of .m4a files when I encode with faac?
+A. Faac uses mp4v2 to create aac files in an m4a or mp4 container. Some 
+   Linux distros have disabled this mp4v2 support due to a licensing issue 
+   and this leave faac only capable of generating mpeg-2/ADTS streams. 
+   These streams should correctly have the .aac file extension and some 
+   players (such as Audacious) will not even play mpeg-2/ADTS streams when
+   they are placed in an .m4a container.
+   As of version 2.6.1 abcde tests the version of faac being used for mp4v2 
+   support and then appropriately  places the audio either in .m4a or .aac. 
+   Note that tagging is not possible with mpeg-2/ADTS streams in .aac.
