Much more pricey than the Russian sites, but it's pleasing to know they sell their downloads as 320kbps DRM free mp3s.

I know this site well and would not recommend it.

At that point of price I'd rather buy the CD (which I usually do from
Amazon used) ...
A very nice site for the upper classes, but not for the likes of me,
and they are limited to One label ..Deutche Grammophon.
That is very limiting to me as well.

Ciao!

How was "La Boheme" , Vik?
Who was in it?
And did your dose of high culture make you feel any better?

I have checked it out and found many interesting titles there like say,
the pianist Andreas Schiff ,one of my favorites..they have a nice selection
by him..most sites don't have any.
But if you are looking past the basic classical library and looking
for more esoteric pieces, than Emusic in this instance would be a better
choice..but Mclub has a classical catalogue that should be looked at,never the less.

and my money is on you to be the next Sr. Member......

I agree with you, Nightfly.
Damo has to be the odds-on favourite to be the next Senior Member, the way he`s racking up the posts
