I don't use it to play music files, either, but it's still pretty silly to simply remove support that's already there.
Also, famousringo, you can pretty much forget about gerenal iTMS support. The majority of available music on the iTMS are DRM protected, and the chance of that ever working on the Wii is next to nothing. iTunes Plus files will work, though.

This would obviously require a deal between Apple and Nintendo. I don't think it makes a whole lot of sense, either, but yanking MP3 support for AAC only is very peculiar. |
Apple had such a deal with Motorola and the ROKR... and now they have launched their own phone. They also have their own STB, and are starting to position both the iPod and the iPhone as (very, very casual) gaming machines.
It's not impossible, but I don't think it'd be a great deal for either party. Despite the fact that they both like glossy white, the biggest similarity between both companies is that they're almost in the same markets - or at least, they're fighting for the same dollars.
