Korean music format MT9 tries to replace MP3 - with a karaoke twist
Engineers in Korea created a new digital music format, dubbed "music 2.0" that leaves the mixing up to the listener. MT9 files contain multi-track unmixed music with separate channels for vocals, guitar, bass, drums, etc. This could be a killer format for karaoke fans, electronic musicians, and mashup mixers. Fortunately there's no built in DRM. The MPEG group has accepted MT9 as a candidate for becoming an officially sanctioned standard format for music.

Indeed interesting to see that multitrack for the end user is coming up.
A couple of months ago I discovered iklax, a multitrack audio format that seems more versatile than MT9. The company provides free trails to test the software on http://www.iklax.com
