Good online music stores

Greetings!
I have just made my first steps into buying music files online, and so far it's been a positive experience. I bought some EPs from Kompakt-mp3.com and two albums from Bleep.com. I have also checked out Beatport.com.

Now that I have been bitten by the bug I am on the lookout for more good stores. What are your favourites?

flac - does it mean lossless? - Wow that's what I've been waiting for!

iTunes Plus at 256 kbps is quite good but why not go all the way?

Perhaps they want to sell me the songs all over again.

I've bought some songs first on vinyl or cassette many years ago, then on CD, and if I've lost the CD then as DRM downloads and now as iTunes Plus for an additional fee. But what i really would want is CD quality which means lossless flac or apple lossless.
The optimal thing would be if someone could start selling 24bit audiofiles in lossless...
