All MP3s are 256kbps and are DRM-free. As someone who is trying to start a basic classical collection, I'm loving these Amazon MP3s deals.

Note, if you've ordered from Amazon recently, you may have a $5 credit towards MP3 purchases and you may get this for free. I got the Beethoven 99 masterpieces for free this way.

Good on ya op. I love these deals as well.

EDIT: Does anyone else's Firefox never seem to remember that Amazon MP3 Downloader is installed? I always have to reinstall it whenever I download something.

Excellent! This will go well with the Beethoven collection I got a little while ago.

If you like what you hear, the complete piano concerto sets by Geza Anda ($43) or Murray Perahia ($50) are both very good deals for the best of his orchestral music (about a dozen CDs worth!). Anda's somewhat more assertive and straightforward, Perahia more poetic.

This set of the string quintets is also great.

Probably not a noticeable difference on 90% of people's sound systems...

Fixed.

228kbps vbr isn't the best out there but majority of people wouldn't know the difference.

It's a sampler.

That said, a lot of great recordings are from the shellac era. 😛

True if you play it thru most typical MP3 players which is fine by my standard too.
However if you play it thru an audiophile rig via a high end DAC such as BelCanto DAC3 that accepts USB from your laptop's itune or alike then yes it shows a great deal.

Yea but like he asid, majority of people. Majority of people don't have a set-up like that.

I just got a new Polk Audio set up and I suspect I will *barely* be able to tell the difference between this and a CD. Perfect, no? A great deal, yes?

 

[ashishmishra]

great deal OP, I will pick it up once I get home.
