So you want to include a library that requires ffmpeg users to obtain a
licence to compile?

Would adding it to the nonfree list be enough? But it's true that most

users would not be aware of the aforementioned limitations.


This is a slippery slope to adding whatever binary blob. As the decoder is
de-facto a binary blob.


Yeah, source available but with a prohibition on compilation might as well be a 
binary blob. Even to be on non-free I'd expect something along the lines of the 
FDK-AAC license at a minimum.
