While I can consistently select lossless from MP3 playback in a blind test, I regularly stream higher res MP3 from Spotify and Pandora and an amazed at the breadth and depth still available from the format. I don't mind listening to it at all - sort of like I use to listen to FM radio years ago - especially symphony and jazz. Just this last Saturday evening - I thoroughly enjoyed Prairie Home Companion - especially the music streaming from my iPhone app. Like most music - good recording and producing and playing and performing will trump sampling rate and bit depth anytime.
BTW - you should support your local Public Broadcast Radio Station financially, if only for the music content, at an annual Spotify rate or better :) I'm a libertarian/conservative politically - but support the arts wholeheartedly! Makes me feel much better than sending the money to politicians and their PAC's
