Because MP3 formats are patented, and the patent holders have not provided the necessary license Fedora 11 cannot include MP3 support out of the box. However, installing MP3 support is quite simple!
Follow these steps: (Log in/ su as root and install the following repos)
rpm -Uvh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-stable.noarch.rpm
rpm -Uvh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-stable.noarch.rpm
Additional Plug Ins
yum -y install gstreamer-plugins-bad gstreamer-plugins-ugly xine-lib-extras-nonfree
Install XMMS Multimedia Player and make is MP3 capable ;-)
yum install xmms xmms-mp3
That's it! type xmms in the terminal, and you can now play MP3 on your Fedora 11 installation!
