I guess I sort of understand the desire for lossless streaming (regardless of which service), but I don't have a huge desire for it myself.
For me, streaming music is primarily used for exploration and for background music. I find 320kbps Ogg Vorbis to per perfectly acceptable for these purposes. When I discover something I really like, I acquire it and it goes into my extensive offline library of lossless music, which is what I use for "active listening". I can't imagine having that library tied to a paid service and dependent on an Internet connection to function.
