Die Walküre - Kaufmann/Gergiev, receiving very favourable comment on its own forum thread (the recommendable "Ring" performances just keep coming and coming.....) Available as a FLAC download at Qobuz, on offer, at €7.99. I have downloaded all three Acts, complete with 38 page PDF booklet. I noticed this last night. (Sorry, I have yet to master the art, in threads, of posting a link). I've also posted on the Qobuz thread my experience of downloading via a Swiss IP server.....

I posted my way of achieving this on the "Qobuz" topic on the techie board section of the forum earlier this evening. . In that topic, others indicate they have managed to get Qobuz to change their account so that Qobuz allows download purchase (but as I used a different method, I don't know if they are still restricted on some purchases)

David,
All you have to do is register with Qobuz then email them asking them to set up your account so that you can purchase downloads, as they have done for other UK accounts. It is also worth mentioning that the Chrome browser has a very helpful auto-translate. Very useful if one's French is not very good.
There is no need for proxy servers or techie solutions, at least not for people in the UK.

-- Die Walküre - Kaufmann/Gergiev for EUR 7.99 --
Thank you so much for pointing this up! I really wanted to have/hear this but wasn't ready to pay full price for the CDs. Note to those interested in Qobuz - I manage it all fine though I speak absolutely no French (unfortunately!). When I email them, I use English and get polite and helpful replies in English, and I just let the downloader go and it puts all the files in my standard music download folder quickly and efficiently. I have found them to be superb to deal with, despite my lack of the language.

I can see the Decca single disc for £9 (ASIN: B00AEQYM6S ) but the 4CD Die Walkure (Mariinsky label ASIN: B00A655N8I) is £31.76. (or, is said seller taking me for a mug with different pricing?).

Just be aware that the recordings/pressings are of a very variable quality. Also, they are not to be confused with Demus's 1960s recordings of some of Schumann's piano works on an 1839 Graf. I suppose EMI have those stashed away somewhere in a locked cupboard in a disused basement. Perhaps some day an archeologist might chance upon them and put them before the public again.
