i can see this taking off in huge numbers , due to the huge uptake of portable mp3 players , alot of ppl don't like buying offline due to the security risks , so buying from a store is a bit more secure
can see video libaries going the same way soon , where you head down with your thumb drive and dump a movie onto the thumb drive, the only thing i see with this is that they movie would need some dmca on it , to kill the movie after X days
while mp3's are pretty crappy format when there is better alternatives out ther , at the the end of the days it's about marketing , records are better then cd's , beta is better then vhs , crt is better then plasma .. for the general user they wont tell the difference between a mp3 and a cd , not when the general consumer just has a crappy bookshelf all in one stereo system or running there ipod with the standard ear buds
