I bought it this morning. I have started listening to it. It is actually really great. Some tracks are repetitive but the diversity is really surprising. Really great choral tracks from Africa and Latin America. Stuff I have never heard before.

It is a musical journey through various forms of chants performed throughout the world. For one dollar, it is definitely worth it because you will find many tracks you will enjoy.

I m definitely chilling today listening to this. Good lazy weekend.

I recommend it. And the sound quality is solid.

Is it lossless?
Edit- oops mp3 i saw the solid sound quality and thought it may be worth it.

 

[Calexico]

256kbps mp3.

If it's not DRM free lossless, not interested.

 

[dallan]

Not interested, out of 300 ghz or more of music my only mp3 was a free concert that i wanted to hear, i just listen to that on computer speakers(Audioengine A5s)otherwise i can't really tolerate it.

Not interested unless you get a vinyl copy in the mail. And the master tapes. And someone to tickle my balls while I listen to the album.


Come on, you're going to stick your nose up to a 99 cent album of unique recordings of cultural works passed down through a tradition of talent and passion? Really now.

i hear the ball tickling really increases soundstage. don't mock the ball tickling.

That last line made me laugh so hard! Oh, and I agree with your sentiments.

 

[krmathis]

Quite nice collection.
But I refuse to pay for lossy music..

 

[mteorman]

I must admit, the album savings of $97.02 (compared to buying all tracks) is quite impressive. I'm going to pass, though, because I probably won't have time to listen to all of this...

This also reminded me that Amazon has a bunch of free music. Thanks for this post!

99 songs for 99c is a pretty good deal.

If I was more interested in chanting I would go for it, lossless or not. I'm not a snob.
