Yeah I can now live with A2DP BT quality if it's a audio specific BT chipset from someone like Parrot. BT has really come a long way. Hands Free BT audio in handsets is limited to the characteristic "vocal" band of the telephony signal. Not the same as A2DP.
A run of the mill CD of a good recording is far better than an MP3 of the same quality, but you know what? Nobody cares. It's "Good Enough" to use an MP3. I make a living in audio and MP3 is fine with me as long as it's good quality. It's so easy to rip to MP3 and put it in a mobile device. Besides, going down the road I can't hear the diff.
So, to recap, BT A2DP has come a long way lately. A cheap BT chipset will sound cheap. I couldn't live with BT on my ears though, rather have a good pair of headphones/earbuds for that.
