About Audacity: Audacity is a free, easy-to-use audio editor and recorder for Windows, Mac OS X, GNU/Linux, and other operating systems. You can use Audacity to: * Record live audio. * Convert tapes and records into digital recordings or CDs. * Edit Ogg Vorbis, MP3, and WAV sound files. * Cut, copy, splice, and mix sounds together. * Change the speed or pitch of a recording.

Audacity is free software, developed by a group of volunteers and distributed under the GNU General Public License (GPL) GNU software is not just free of cost (like "free beer"). It is free as in freedom (like "free speech"). Free software gives you the freedom to use a program, study how it works, improve it, and share it with others. For more information, visit the Free Software Foundation. Programs like Audacity are also called open source software, because their source code is available for anyone to study or use. There are thousands of other free and open source programs, including the Mozilla web browser (Firefox), the LibreOffice suite, and entire operating systems - such as Linux and my personal favourite FreeBSD.
