Hello,

For what I know, it's mainly due to the way lilypond-book works : it
separate systems in multiple files, compile them, then include them as
graphics.

The right side could be corrected by adding a horizontal size (in the
options of the lilypond environnemnt, I think). Something like
\lilypondfile[line-width=15\cm]{file.ly}

For the spacing between systems, it must be added this way in the preamble
of your LaTeX document:

\newcommand{\betweenLilyPondSystem}[1]{\vspace{1mm}\linebreak} % change 1mm
by whatever you want

It was explained here recently :

I've opened

http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=1802

I didn't get an answer on where I should put this in usage specifically, but 
I'll take another look today and see if I can come up with something suitable 
for a patch.
