One randomly selected album cost €11.99 or £8.57ish when I selected ‘UK’ as my country

The mp3’s are said to be encoded at 320kbps, so they are going to be decent, even if the sound profile for mp3 doesn’t match this type of music (mp3’s compress using a psychoacoustic model – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychoacoustic#Psychoacoustics_in_software.)

The price in Euros works out to much higher with the exchange rate.

It really seems like a great opportunity.
