  15. Sententia

    @doc-gaucho
    so every time we want to listen to this, we should look at cduniverse’s incomplete and over-complicated and error-prone web site?

    …when it would take just a few seconds to scan the track information page of the booklet and post it?

    i’d like to download most of these, but i’m not going to download any of them. i don’t see the point.

    seems to me that it all depends on whether someone actually loves the music, or just wants to fill up their hard drive with possessions.

    1. doc-gaucho

      @Sententia and to all other discontent …….

      I think, We have to remember ALWAYS: This is a page of two enthusiasts, nicknamed Rach and Whatever, who are doing a fantastic job for hardly anything!
      On the other hand: Who gives NOTHING but wants to get ALL at once and perfect should know – only for the BBC- Collection cough up nearly 3000 $! Or someone of us donated them bunches of bucks for their risk ? Only the hosters are in collision with copywrite law, we, the „only leecher“, not! Don’t forget it! Never!
      The shown link by me, Sententia, will really help You:
      Click on the button „MP3- Details“ for each CD, open Your eyes wide and You‘ll get all useful informations (there is a folder „Tracklist“ too!). How to copy and paste ……………..
      So equal me- be patient and apologetic, sit down and create Your tracklist yourself if not given by our friendly benefactors.

    Nice to have all this music.
    But the downloads don’t even include a list of what’s on the CD or who’s playing or a tracklist.

    Could this information be included, please? It’s really a waste of time to download these if we can never know what’s on them.

    Thank you!

  20. Thommi

    I am absolutely and totally flabbergasted.
    Wow, this might keep not only my modem but also me until retirement busy…
    thank you so much for your kind offerings!!

      2. dandoc

        Hi Whatever.

        I posted a message for you yesterday which seems to have been expurgated in connection with a site update. I try again.

        The Richter disc of Schubert, Bartok, Szymanowski and Prokofiev (BBC 4265-2) is on the list, but it isn’t available for download on Filepost. Could you please do something about that. Thanks.

        Otherwise wonderful post … it goes without saying.
