Let's get this: they can make and send me a cd for 1/2 the price of a download, that involves no manufacturing or raw material. I am expected to throw out all my prior recordings and rush to this.
Hmmmm.
I'm not sure this will fly.

that's times a thousand discs
don't need. Or a few mugs of "craft" beer.
I suspect the premium is for superior sound but if you don't buy into such things I totally understand.
$9 for a DVD-A (plus shipping) with the 24/192 file on it vs. $16 for the same 24/192 makes little sense to me considering they have to buy the disk and burn it.
But...
I'd rather have the disk, rip it if I can figure out how (VLC should do it) and have my cake and eat it!
I use DVD Audio Extractor, which works pretty well. Works on the audio portion of Blu-rays, too (though you'd need a disc drive that can read BDs, and sometimes you need to do an intervening step, using MakeMKV, to overcome the copy protection).

as VLC running in a custom partition is my go-to player for 96/24 and 192/24 content.
If I can figure out how to rip it and convert it to ALAC I'll be golden.
If VLC doesn't work, you can try out DVDAE for free for 30 days. (And it can rip directly to ALAC!)

which right now sounds surprisingly good with the very few Hi Rez downloads I have done.
$40 well spent, if you ask me.
Not literature or 'jewel' cases but...
I can never find the CD cases anyway and I have all of these recordings on LP if I want to read while I'm listening.
