Now fully downloaded and the files of CD 1 renamed to commence with "(Disc 1) " which they some how forgot to include. Now to either convert to CDA or stitch the 'tracks' of each Act together for gapless playback. I think the latter is preferable.

Remember '78s, so massively inconvenient, constant turning records over, changing records, re-winding turntable, occasional replacing needle - downloads are so much more convenient

Sounds like assembling a motor cycle not a ring cycle!

downloading is the point where the 21st century left me behind, I'm afraid

A reviewer on the US site is reporting that some of the tracks are mis-labelled. it may be worth extra checking before burning to cd!

[Dave2002]

I thought you didn't like downloads Dave !!

I take it that is a YES !!

£4.49 vs £92.00 in pieces/works I'm not terribly fond of. Which do you think I'm going to go for?

Neither?!

[Dave2002]

Neither?!

Would be logical, but I'm open to ideas. As someone else wrote, could be played in the car. The tracks could be useful for playing to others. There only have to be a few tracks in the set which I do enjoy to make it worth having.

If I absolutely hated everything in the works I wouldn't bother at all.

[Nick Armstrong]

Yes, he also started a 9th but didn't complete it.

Very dry, Mr O...

My life's too short for things I'm not very fond of, I fear

Might as well put it on shuffle play, perhaps.

I have just tried copying and pasting the last 'track' of Das Reingold onto the penultimate one only to find they do not play seamlessly. There is a slight but annoyingly noticeable stutter.

No how does one reject and claim a refund on a faulty Amazon mp3 download?

Tell them you have been sold down the river.

I agree that could be annoying. However, at the price it might not be worth the bother. I think there is a complaints procedure if you feel the fault is really problematic.You probably could align the tracks if you have the time and patience to do it.

[Bryn]

I have just tried opening those two 'tracks' in Sound Forge, edited out the brief digital silence and the end of the penultimate and start of the final track and still they will not play seamlessly. There is audio data missing from the ends of the mp3s.
