Sounds interesting after doing a little bit of research. I don't think file size should be a huge concern anymore, though, but it's nice to have a format with a small footprint. It would be especially useful if you could layer sounds that can't be achieved with instruments (voices, whatever) on it. Only drawback is that some computers might have trouble playing intricate pieces, but I think that can be pretty much disregarded as it's a small percentage of people (if any).
