People have been commenting on the sound of the sample on the site - isn't
that run through some DSP? (I haven't listened to it yet, but it would
surprise me if MM demo'd a dry sound.)

I am not the Jim Williams who was talking about DVD drives, etc.
I talk about the euphonium.
...but I ask the people who are listening to the GPO Steinway: Are you
listening to the raw, dry sample? If so you are giving GPO short Schrift.
GPO's philosophy is to sample instruments dry (I know this from personal
experience) and let the user process it.
In fact, full GPO used to have a "wet audition" set of instruments so
users could hear what the instruments sound like. It was canned because
people tried to USE it in performance and their CPUs got chewed up due to
the reverb on every instrument.
So if you are listening to the dry GPO Steinway, run it through a good
reverb.
