Sony won't let itself become the exception to the rule: Music Unlimited (http://www.engadget.com/tag/MusicUnlimited/) now has an option for a much more detailed 320Kbps bitrate. The quality upgrade is staggered and is initially active on Android devices, the PlayStation 3 (http://www.engadget.com/2012/10/08/playstation-3-review-late-2012/) and the web player, while desktops, iOS (http://www.engadget.com/2012/05/21/sony-music-unlimited-ios/), the PlayStation Vita (http://www.engadget.com/2012/02/13/playstation-vita-review/) and home theater gear will get improved tunes later on in the year. Music Unlimited won't appease those who want a consistent experience in the near term, then -- still, it might be enough for listeners whose Xperia (http://www.engadget.com/tag/xperia,review/) serves as a primary jukebox.
