When internet bandwidth and iPod capacity increase to the point where you can download music at CD quality or better just as fast as an mp3 and still hold the same number of songs, that will be the norm. And those days are very near.

it's even easier than that. With all the companies, Apple included, working on lossless compression algos, the problem of poor quality will indeed be a thing of the past.
