Also think about it this way. RSNs need to be played via emulated players and an RAR plugin is needed. This could be played on your favorite flash cart and no additional plugins or compression would be necessary.
Yes, but who really cares about that, like 1% of people listening to these sets? They wouldn't be possible to use with SPC Tool/OpenSPC/possibly other software (foobar2000 and Winamp in the short term.) Also, what happens if you need to dump more tracks for a set, or need to remove some? Presumably you can't change an SPC2 set, and would have to add the tracks to an uncompressed SPC set and then rebuild an SPC2 anyway. So as far as I am concerned, it is a step backwards until all that stuff is remedied. It should completely supplant all the uses SPC has, otherwise it shouldn't be adopted.
Maybe put the SPC to SPC2 converting tool up on the main page.
So really this claim is woolly:

Overall it's a shit-ton better than SPC and RSN.
For who? For what purpose? A very small number of people who are interested in replaying them on hardware? That's fine with me, but not if it comes at the expense of the other practical uses I've outlined.
