    thanks for the Link!

    Deutsche Grammophon is offering free downloads too via an advent Calendar .. though they are only mp3 format.. i'm sure they're still pretty decent considering the source.

    Thanks very much. It took a bit to figure out how to get Windows Media Player to play FLAC files, but it sounds great.

    Thanks again.

    Thanks for giving us the heads-up. It is really a nice gift that they gave us. Some of the selections were very traditional while others were unique. I always like sampling new music. That Linn made higher resolutions available was great and provided an opportunity to compare the different resolutions of the same recording. Even with through my Dell laptop and Koss PortaPros, the difference between 24bit 192KHz and CD 16bit 44KHz and MP3 320 was noticeable.

    I thing I only missed two of the Linn recordings.

    Thank you Linn and Deutsche Grammophon!
