This is correct. I believe that the owners of the MP3 patents
require a license fee for any compliant encoder, and Apple doesn't
want to pass on the costs of that license to every OSX and iOS
customer, therefore the encoder is not included in the system. Apple
does provide ample hooks for third-party encoders, so you're not
without options.

A bit of googling leads me to believe that core audio has no mp3
encoder, and I won't be able to create mp3s using pure apple code.
Is this true?
