It does seem reasonable to do so to me - it is a superior product.  We
have long argued that iTunes should be way cheaper as it is 128k only -
why not the converse, as here?

BTW it seems that their £18 price covers double albums too - must buy
their Messiah quick, in case it's a mistake!

Their classical musicians are good, but not the international big
names.  This often results in very good records, free of ego!
