+SoundConverter is the leading audio file converter for the GNOME
+Desktop. It reads anything GStreamer can read (Ogg Vorbis, AAC,
+MP3, FLAC, WAV, AVI, MPEG, MOV, M4A, AC3, DTS, ALAC, MPC, Shorten,
+APE, SID, MOD, XM, S3M, etc...), and writes to Opus, Ogg Vorbis,
+FLAC, WAV, AAC, and MP3 files, or use any GNOME Audio Profile.
+
+SoundConverter aims to be simple to use, and very fast.
+Thanks to its multithreaded design, it will use as many cores
+as possible to speed up the conversion. It can also extract
+the audio from videos.
+
+Optional dependencies for more audio support are: gst-plugins-bad,
+gst-plugins-ugly and gst-ffmpeg
