How hard would it have been for them to offer the download in two parts for the benefit of those of us who simply want it on 2CD's ???

Basically 9:90 Euro and I've now got to sit in front of my PC whenever i want to lisen to it..... Not good.

I know it's probably possible to split them, but TD are assuming we all know what we're doing in that department.... :cry:
you can download them as shorter tracks as well mate

TD should let us know before downloading, if it was better to dl the six suites seperately, instead.

If you have Nero editor, I could post instructions on splitting the mp3.

How ? I went back into my account, the download is still active but the only option is for the one file.

btw there are freeware MP3 editors available online....very simple to use as well (most allow you even fade in and out), such as 'Cool Mp3 splitter'.

I'm pointing out that you 'could have' chosen to download them as tracks:

Yeah that's true, but it would have cost almost twice as much to do it that way.....

There was no mention that it was a single track that would be downloaded.

I recall purchasing the Orange Odyssey download and after the purchase i went to the download page and it was in several parts, and i simply selected which one went onto each CD etc....

This is VERY misleading this time....

True ..but let me point out to you that that method would have cost 17.94 rather than 9.99 wouldnt it ?

Yeah, I've only downloaded maybe half a dozen albums in the past, from this website, and from Music Zeit, and my experiece has always been that you purchase the album as a whole, and then download the tracks individually from the download site after you've paid for it.

I just think it's a bit misleading in this instance, and they're assuming we all have access to, and the knowledge to use software that allows us to split the single download.

Is that afterall not what I've just paid for ???
