Well, ultimate for me, anyway. ALL movements of ALL of Beethoven's symphonies, ALL movements of ALL his piano sonatas, and ALL movements of ALL his string quartets, all in lossless audio format. 212 tracks in all.

Anyone want it? All of it compressed in .mp3 is only a mere gigabyte.

Am I getting the weird replies because this is illegal or for some other obscure reason?

I didn't think there was anything wrong with downloading non-copyrighted classical music from xxx years ago.

The music itself is not copyrighted but PERFORMANCES of the music are.

Depending on the work, classical music may or may not be public domain, as far as I know. Now the musical works themselves aren't copyrighted - they are public domain, like folk songs. But actual PERFORMANCES of songs - say the NY Philharmonic plays a piece - that may be copyrighted.

Everyone can do good with some classical music to listen to, never even considered that being included with discussing warez or illegal downloads. But yeah, copyrighted performances, makes sense. My apologies!
