I am considering trying to use Sphinx on prerecorded media files, so
ideally I'm looking for a way to feed a file to a tool and get a
transcript (undoubtedly with errors due to speaker difference, noise,
etc.) back out of the tool.

However, so far, the learning curve (for me) on just getting Sphinx
built for Windows or OSX is daunting. And all the Googling I have done
has been unable to locate a pre-compiled distribution of Sphinx for the
platforms I am most interested in (OSX and Win).
