Canonical has already been selling music via Ubuntu One (do you actually know anyone though who uses this though as opposed to Amazon's MP3 service, etc?),

Well, since the Amazon MP3 service is not available outside the US, I have used the Ubuntu One store, mostly as a way to give something back for software which I use everyday...

I use it too because it syncs to all my computers and to my mobile.
A huge plus in my opinion.

I refuse to buy songs in lossy formats. I'd be delighted to buy them in flac though!

There are/were some FLAC files in the U1MS (but I don't remember if you can search/filter for them, it's been some time I looked at it).
