The problem with these weaknesses is that they are different in each human being. For me listening an mp3 is like a sanding an ear, while some don't even hear the difference between it and a live performance.

There is such a broad spectrum in thr word mp3 that you need to be more specific. I can absolutely pick the difference between certian high bitrate mp3 encodings and wav files, however a different mp3 with exactly the same bitrate, effectively indistinguishable.
Bad mp3 encoding is a problem, not one I have experienced recently though. I think the bigger issue is people will rip a music video from youtube, then instead of extracting the existing audio stream into it's own container will reencode it. Mp3->mp3 encoding will be lossy just like any other encoder.
