What is the latest music you've downloaded where did you buy it and in what resolution?

Interesting, not a purchase, but I may sample a bit more

The new Baxter Dury album just downloaded from bandcamp, only £5.99 (minimum) here in the UK. What’s not to like?

Qobuz Fest now on again - they seem to trot out the same things year on year but many seem cheaper or utter bargains with Sublime.

This is daft surely?

If you are on Qobuz Sublime there are great deals and discounts! I’m not as I don’t buy enough new albums these days to make it worthwhile. Someone like @BertBird however…

Great band Lifesigns, I’ve been waiting for the bluray of this, but is the download good quality ‘ hi-res?

No, 44/16 FLAC. But really good live recording. Highly recommended.

A truly remarkable vocal performance by Ms Simone on this one, recorded in 1966 at the Newport Jazz Festival. I think this is the best archival jazz release of the year so far.

Crikey, I hadn’t noticed until now but Sublime subscribers are getting big discounts off the Qobuz Download Fest prices, from memory in the past it was just a bit more than the ‘sale price’, but 60% plus off the sale prices is a big incentive to buy.

For example, already have this but impressive discounts (DG catalogue anyway):

Non-Sublime subscriber price is £9.09 reduced from £15.59.

NOTE: Looks as if it’s mainly or only the DG catalogue that has the added discounts.

Likewise, I have this as a rip of my CD - which always sounded amazing.

Played the 192 Hi Res thinking I’ll use my sublime discount to buy it again.

But my 16bit CD rip sounds better than the Hi Res.

I wish they paid me to do the Hi Res - emperor’s new clothes.
