More Bit Depth, Please

Just found a good classical guitar site:

Unfortunately, the recordings are in MP3 format because of the limits of current technology. CDs and MP3s sure sound edgy by comparison with vinyl or 24-bit audio. I wish we had a way to get better audio (with the help of more bit depth) over the Web, though bandwidth and storage limitations would make it impossible in the near term, even if the will were there.
