Sounds pretty kewl, particularly useful for DJs wanting to "remix on the fly": The new MP3: revolutionary file format offers customisable sound | News | guardian.co.uk Music

I can't see artists wanting to release on this.

Would be really good for mixing, though, i've often thought about this.

clever. I doubt it will be popular though. Firstly, it allows listeners to steal invidual parts very easily, and secondly, most artists will want the listener to hear the music as they intended, not some edited version.
