I love classical music and I stumbled on this gem last night.

It's Volume 2 of the 100 Greatest Classical Masterpieces of All Time series.

9 Hours of Classical Music
100 Tracks

Price: $5.99
Album Savings: $83.01 compared to buying all songs

http://www.amazon.com/100-Greatest-Classical-Masterpieces-Time/dp/B002LIB8SM/


I bought volume 1 a few months ago and the quality on some of the recordings was a little questionable, but I am half way through this one and the quality is outstanding!

I would highly recommend this to anybody interested in classical music, or anybody who doesn't own any classical music

Im only 22, haha. I am going to use this when I study. Somebody told me it also would make great "background music".

Thanks for the link. I'm thinking if Volume 1 is not available that it might be a promo deal or something?

This is MP3 downloads. There's no way the quality can be 'outstanding'. That is something MP3 cannot deliver.

9 hours of classical music on CD would be hot. Not mp3s.

Maybe if this was 1995 and your processor and dialup connection can't handle anything more than 32k or 64k MP3s. These are 256k and would sound great on any decent system. I haven't heard all the songs yet, but if there are any of questionable quality, it would be due to the source material, not the MP3 format.

FLAC or WAV versions of the songs will destroy a 256K MP3 any day. If you can't hear a difference, it's your audio system, speakers or ear buds.

Thanks Sherlock, who new a non-compressed version would sound better. Even better than FLAC or WAV, is vinyl, yes vinyl.

Here are the wikis, but I can't find any info on which is better; Flac or Vinyl.

I found out that vinyl can be just as good as FLAC if its a new vinyl. At first I thought of a recording from the 1950's, but I now understand that some new music is being produced onto vinyl at amazing qualities.

Thanks for the info atomota.

As for the 100 Greatest Classical Masterpieces Vol. 2, I am missing song # 67 "The Buffoon, The Buffoon's Bedroom"

Is anybody else missing this song? Or is it a problem with my computer?

Thanks in advance
