This breaks any form of analysis upload, cache retrieval, etc. That internet dependency has gone away. Tested using the swinger.py example:

$ python swinger.py -v some.mp3
['en-ffmpeg', '-i', 'some.mp3', '-y', '-ac', '2', '-ar', '44100', '/var/folders/fq/z9z18vsj091dh6xkhtp8mgz40000gn/T/tmpxPlXfA.wav']
Computed MD5 of file is 0a6ab6501acce131a7c23fd024dba596
