I have some data that I collected at the beginning of June that may
support this.

I was trying to find out If hAudio should support "annotation" or
album-summary, audio-summary.

so I looked at all the examples on the
http://microformats.org/wiki/audio-info-examples page to see if I could
determine how many examples had a description associated with albums or
files 

Podcasts 100% of 8 available sources
Individual Publishing of Music 100% 0f 2 available sources
Music Podcasting 80% of 9 available sources
Mashups, remixes, cut-ups and audio-collages 50% of 4 available sources
Service Publishing of Music 54% of 39 available sources.

It looks like podcasting needs an annotation of sorts the rest make what
you will.

two mFs I would recommend we adopt is "note" from hCard or "description"
from xFolk.
