I agree, I like having the physical media and rip to lossless, then for portability. For most of the artists I like, I want the entire album even if a couple of songs seem weak (repeated listening often changes my opinion).
It's refreshing to see a large company like Universal experiment with lower pricing for a change. Maybe ebook publishers could take note...
