The freebies last until June 4th I believe, but I'm not seeing that in the e-mail. Apparently the page I reached after clicking the one-time link must have had that information.

D'oh! I found out that one of my problems has been that my email program is set to truncate messages. Therefore, I had not been seeing the information about the free albums, which information is located far down in the messages.

After viewing the most recent email message, in its entirety, that I got from Naxos offering a free album, I saw a fairly prominent yellowish-orangish button with "Click Here to Make and Receive Your Choice." Clicking on it brought up a very nice webpage that clearly gave the three album options that you mentioned, with large thumbnails, helpful descriptions, and track-by-track information on each album. And, of course, you can preview the album--and you do that track-by-track. This is really a fantastic giveaway! It's late at night now, but I'll look over, and listen over, the choices tomorrow and make my choice from this current offer!

Unfortunately, the webpage that I mentioned in the previous paragraph seems to be linked to my personal email address, so I know of no way to let non-subscribers see it. For the benefit of you who are subscribers and non-subscribers, you might be interested in following this link to Naxos' "Free Album Offer Guide."

FYI--the current free download offer "is active until June 3, 2016," instead of June 4 as Manabi had remembered.

I encourage anyone interested in classical music to go to Naxos' website and sign up for their emails. You will then periodically (monthly?) receive email messages offering free albums. It may be too late for you to get in on the current offer, but then again, maybe not--there may be a way to substitute your email address in the URL of the download webpage that I mentioned three paragraphs above, and access it that way. If someone wants to try that, let me know, in open forum, and I'll see if I can help you, and anyone else who is interested, with it.

Thanks, Manabi, for all of your kind help.
