Classical Deals/Mistakes at Amazon
Both Michael Gielen's Mahler Cycle (13 CDs), which Classics today gave a 10/10, and Carl Schuricht Edition (20 CDs) - both on Haennsler Classics, are currently selling for $17.98 in mp3 edition.
I assume it's a mispricing, since that is their 2 album mp3 rate. get them before the price goes up. I already bought the Mahler cycle with CC crack cards (cost about $4.50) , so I snagged the Schuricht set.

I, too, think it is mispricing, given the cost of the CD sets.
Both those are cheap in the UK store too (£13.98).
I may get the Mahler from there rather than emu as it's 55 downloads for the set which would stop me getting many other things that I can't get cheap elsewhere.
If anyone's interested, the Frank Sinatra - Concepts 16 disc set that I mentioned months ago is still on amazon UK for only £8.99 and I also snapped up the Fairport Convention Live at the BBC 4 disc set for only £4.49!
$46 for 21 discs.

I picked it up a couple of years ago on a $99 gold box special, but haven't listened to it yet. Tempted to put it up for sale.
