I think the long term value of an integrated format will be at the individual track level. The additional text, graphics, links and/or video create the context that requires a trip to Google and the web today. It’s a big win for artists since every song can contain a bio and access information. Packaging several songs or pieces into a larger artistic object is then a choice, not a limitation.

Without built-in support for FLAC, or a documented plugin scheme that allows you to develop support for same, I’m not interested.

The fact that mp3 audio quality is much lower than CD audio quality is one thing, but the fact that an mp3 album in the iTunes store is MORE EXPENSIVE than a physical CD is what infuriates me even more.
