I got notice of this freebie from the BBC Music Magazine newsletter, I'm guessing you saw it there too. I don't recall any previous free albums announced from them, but I'm definitely keeping the newsletter in case they send out more.  |
I'm sure that you're right on the first count. I just missed that feature. Too bad, too, especially since I went to the trouble to download each file individually (I'm not sure why, unless I had a bad flashback to the old dialup days when I used a download manager to try to speed things up a little bit. ha).
You're right on the second count, too. I didn't recall seeing any from them before, either. But the first page of the email said that it was an advertisement, so that might have been the difference. If so, I hope that more music publishers do that kind of advertising.
I get a ton of email, lots of it from companies (and some people, like authors) that I hope will send a good deal occasionally. But the volume has gotten ridiculous, and I'm trying now to unsubscribe from one email list for every one that I add.
(I'm speaking to everyone now) BTW--music posts, including classical music posts, are not my exclusive domain! If you see a deal, by all means, post it, even if I traditionally do it and you think that I would have posted it eventually. It will not offend me in the least!
