Re:MP3 sound quality: Good enough by anigbrowl on Thursday September 03, 2009 @03:12PM (#803242)
Two words: repeat sales.

Those who care about audio quality won't abandon their hardware playback platform for exactly this reason. Even those who don't understand the technicalities are vaguely aware of the problem.

The solution is FLAC, but since it's free, lossless, and (typically) 2-3x larger, it has had fairly slow growth. Still: http://flac.sourceforge.net/links.html
