A very interesting new initiative from Chandos - http://www.chandos.net/USBCollections.asp (http://www.chandos.net/USBCollections.asp)

Will it catch on?  ???

I don't actually want any of the collections, but I applaud Chandos' lateral thinking.

As I said elsewhere, a bit expensive though. 100 pounds for 11-12 discs, where their just-released Grainger Edition is 19 discs for 53.

It's an interesting notion....but at the same time something about it bothers me. Not exactly sure WHAT (outside of the use of 320kps Mp3 files instead of LAME V0 ones) but...

I applaud the thinking, but I don't want anything they're offering. They're either repeats for me or contain stuff I don't want.

there's a pun lurking in there somewhere.
