Properly encoded high bitrate mp3's have no audible loss in quality.
There are no quality issues when you download dvd iso's which you burn straight to a dvd-r and are exactly the same as the commercial release, sans packaging.
I'd be happy to have all my film/audio stored in a computer, dvd's and cd's take up too much space as it is, without a box and an inlay.

I'm gonna talk about the scene to which I belong. The inclusion of a booklet or further literature is of extreme importance to DIY political punk releases - providing information to support the lyrics. Listings of activist contacts may be included too. It demonstrates also that the band has taken time and care over the release - not simply thrown it out with little thought.
