IMHO, more than 99% of people who listen to mp3s have not been in double-blind testing :) and therefore do not notice any minor artifacting from using MS stereo. And BTW, isn't *lossy* encoding what Lame is all about? Even the best of mp3 encodings, at the best bitrates, have atleast some artifacts that can be noticed by trained listeners, but not by your average common man...I believe.
