MP3 makes perfectly sense as it is the format that *all* of the MP3-Players support. Apple-AAC and M$-WMA will not be able to played over USB anyway due to their DRM restriction and are only allowed to come out of a player in analog format. This would mean that they need to remote control all kinds of players for this to work. (Unless they take the iPod-only approach..)

The solution with the USB host is so simple, just plug a MSC compliant players (the most of them are) and let the car radio play the (MP3) tracks.
