Re: FREE Concertgebouw Orchestra symphony downloads
just to let folks know, I couldn't get this to download in Firefox. Had to go to IE, and then I still had to right click/save target as... to get anything
These are not small files. Brahms 2 is almost 90 mb. pretty damned big,
and it's downloading awfully slow!!! Not really suitable for downloading for a portable player, but maybe to burn to CD and convert...
anyone else tried this, and succussfully?
this is terrific!!! thanks for passing it along!

I had to right click and Save As... myself as it wanted to play each time rather than download. However download was pretty fast. I also had to use IE

Can’t make them download in either Safari or IE on my Mac (OSX - 10.5.5).
If I click the Download button they want a registration with very detailed personal specs.

They extended the mp3 offer until the end of December. This is a great chance to hear the "No. 1 Orchestra in the World" for free.
