Don't let users upload audio formats that are not supported #33

An alternative approach would be to play back the transcoded file.

Hi @schjonhaug Why not allowing users to upload valid audio files and if it is not supported, convert them in the back end to the supported audio file?

This would enhance user experience and provide the user with SOA as a single black box approach where the user doesn't have to worry about formatting the audio files.

Cheers Darius
