Less detail in MP3, better clarity with lossless or even high bit rate lossy.
As for sight issues, yes you do notice the higher pixel retina display, especially in terms of clarity. Although I have read that people fear retina on a tablet could make the text too small. We'll have to see what happens.
Nah, iOS scales fonts. That's why text is so much more readable on the iPhone 4 than on the iPhone 3GS, even when zoomed out.
I'm with you on the lossless vs lossy thing -- lossless is just objectively better in every way unless you're using really cheap equipment.
