Not sure about this one. MP3 is a highly lossy format, comparable to MPG1 video in the amount of detail that's lost. And you never get it back. Record companies love that, because it's maybe 1/10th a modern digital recording, which are now being mastered similar to 7.1 channel movie soundtracks.
MP3s and iPods have returned us to the days of AM transistor radios. The music is there, and it's all some people want or need, but MP3 just isn't good enough to be all that we'll ever need. I predict you'll be buying your music again real soon!
