Search amazon.co.uk for The Rolling Stones Grrr Greatest Hits on Blu-Ray 'Pure Audio' disc. 50 Song collection in 24/96 PCM (plus DTS and Dolby) delivered to USA for just under $22 total. Check out the little video on the page. It looks like there might be more titles coming in this format. But 50 of The Rolling Stones greatest hits for only $22......wow, makes those $60 single SACD's from Japan seem a little over-priced.

Not crazy about the sound quality at all, unfortunately. The older tunes are MP3 sounding. Honky Tonk Women was ok. Overall, it's very clear and resolving but thin as heck. One could say weird. Not much bass, sorry Bill! This is on my Oppo 95 FWIW.
.
They weren't recorded very well so there is nothing you can really do to make them sound a whole lot better. It was intended to sound good on little speakers over AM radio in a car.
I had the Mobile Fidelity vinyl box and it was pretty much unlistenable by audiophile standards.

You didn't spend north of $10k for a player. *Everyone* knows the Oppo 95 is consumer-level drek.
BTW, I own, and thoroughly enjoy, my BDP-93...

I googled a bit and what I found looked very convoluted

Dead-nuts simple to use and the cost is minimal. Just to make sure, I just ripped the DTS 5.1 track from the Monterey Pop disc. It took about 5 minutes to create the .DTS file and it is currently playing thru my PC speakers using Foobar2000. This works just as well with Bluray discs and losslessly-encoded tracks...

ordered mine. This is what community boards should be about. Helpful information instead of pointless bickering and arguments.
My copy arrived yesterday - have not had a chance to spin it yet but am looking forward to it.
Please keep these updates and news coming - this is TOO good a deal!
Happy listening...

Thanks! Placed my order. Amazon US only has the 3-CD set at a higher price. The disk is called GRRR!
for some reason Amazon UK charged me LESS than the listed price. It lists for 12 pounds and they charged me 10 pounds plus 3 pounds shipping. 13 pounds is about $20!
.
Same experience, here! It was listed at 12 GBP plus shipping, but it loaded in my cart as 10 GBP plus 3.08 GBP shipping for a total of 13.08 GBP delivered to the USA! Thanks to the OP for the heads-up!
Thanks - I will be placing my order on payday!
Happy listening...
