    I think they still want your CC details to get a new account, with a promise that they won't use it if you cancel before the end of the trial period.

      Just checked further. The three three "Blues Greats" which did download turned out to be mp3s, not the FLACs chosen.

        O.K. The problem seems to be with the "DOWNLOAD WITH QOBUZ FOR MAC/PC option. I have now successfully downloaded the "Blues Greats" triple album using the alternative "DOWNLOAD MY MUSIC" option to download a .tar file of FLACs.

            I think I may have logged out and then back in again. anyway, they all seem to have dowloaded ok now ( Media Player, CD quality)

              You'll probably find that two of the tracks on that Blues album have bursts of white noise. I can't remember which, but they're towards the end.

                    Did I mention that mine came from France ?

                    ( Via Swindon, obviously ......)

                      Well, glory be! It has now been dispatched, from Piacenza! Due to here Friday. Hopefully, it will arrive a day early.

                        Arrived late this afternoon. The cited damage was extremely minor, just a knock to one corner of the box. The corner affected has been easily enough repaired/reinforced with the application of some 'magic' tape. Something to listen to in place of the news. Fortunately, not too much duplication. However, I was surprised to find how few works of leading composers for the piano have been recorded by her. Not a single Beethoven Piano Sonata, for instance.

                          van Zweden Bruckner 1-9 only £15 for 24 bit on Qobuz. Even less for CD quality

                              I've found a CD that I want and it's available used from Amazon Germany, Italy, France and Spain but not the UK. Each one I try says that it can't be shipped to my UK address. The items are for sale from 3rd party suppliers, not Amazon. Has anyone else had this issue and found a way around it?
                              thanks

                                All too often, of late. You could try contacting the vendor via the relevant Amazon site, but be careful how you word your communication lest an Amazon functionary pulls it as an attempt to buy directly from the vendor
