You miss my point. He can't change everything that's wrong with music formats and he has chosen this way to try to introduce people to a better format. Many people don't even know that there is better than mp3. I love the fact that this will play mp3 so that people can use their existing music and maybe take baby steps into better quality. You seem to think that unless he changes everything that's wrong, then what he is doing is worthless. I applaud him for trying.
