Well the main advantage I can see is that we are able to have mp3 support without adding a new library dependency. This will be especially useful for platforms other than Linux where libmpg123 is not present. Such as the Mac.
How hard is it to make a configure option whether to link to libmpg123 dynamically or statically, and probably default to dynamic linking(not dlopen).
That way package providers can build a package that doesn't need extra dependencies, self-compilers(where build system == runtime system) don't need two copies of the library on their HD, and distribution providers can decide what to do with their own wine package.
