I wouldn't shoehorn NSF as a non-recommended format. In fact, I don't use NSFEs just because the very few plugins that support this format have much lower sound quality than, say, NSFPlug.

I agree. I wouldn't recommend the NSFe format as it is right now. NSFPlug is a vastly superior plugin for NES, aside from the small selection of NSFe's, I just find that NotSoFatso sounds pretty bad. Perhaps it can sound better if you tweak the settings or something, but why bother when NSFPlug sounds perfect right away? It even detects loops and silences and auto-skips to the next track, so I don't have issues with the lack of track times either.
More importantly though, here's 2SF--DS music format. I guess it only works for music made for the Nitro sound system, but I'm not actually 100% sure on that one... Anyway, it's pretty cool. They seem to have a policy where they upload music 6 months after the game was released, which coincides nicely with the newly-found waiting time period for SotW...
