Yes, I prefer working with lossless / flac myself so I'm quite happy to make that option available if I can find somewhere suitable to host files of that size.

Looks like the way forward then is MP3s @ 128kbps with a flac option for those who want lossless or to make a higher bitrate MP3 for their own purposes.
