The design of that thing is just terrible. It's like walking around with a Toblerone bar in your pocket. While I like the idea of a music store offering FLAC files, the benefits are lost on an portable music player because the subtle differences would not heard when you're out in the noisy world, especially not if you're using the cheap earplugs or headphones most people use.
