I'm afraid I'm going to have to give you a low score for this troll.
You misspell malware and apparently don't even know what it is. Malware is software that is or contains adware, spyware, a virus, a worm, or a trojan. It's not low quality software.
Also, the first sentence was worded poorly, since you can easily output sound files from Audacity without lame. You only need it to export to MP3. It also simply has to be installed, so "import" is a poor word choice. These points considered, it should have been something like, 'Got to install LAME, eh, to save to the standard music format?' Calling MP3 the 'standard' format might really get under someone's skin. Then when someone objects to you calling it the standard, you can always reply "Oh, come on. It's the de facto standard."
I'd give it a 5, since it is redeemed somewhat by the, 'Oh, that is so stupid!' factor.
