Hi Tom-another possibility that folks might explore is the relatively new
​ (to the US)​
eclassical dot com.
​  Based in Sweden, so they say.  They offer FLAC at​
​
​ 16 bit and 24 bit and also mp3 at 320, all for the same low price, and it
is quite a bit lower than HDtracks.  Payment via Paypal.  A fairly
extensive catalog, some less well known but highly regarded
orchestras/performers.  Also a fair bit of jazz.  I am curious, can you
always tell the difference between mp3 at 320 and WAV using high end
headphones and a good quality headphone amp?
