Here's some Marston CDs, pressed CDs with printed
packaging, and the proof of how much it's worth
so far, as opposed to CD-Rs that come without printed
paper and / or cardboard:
Mahler decade (1897-1907), 2 CDs: US $255.00 + ?
https://www.ebay.com/itm/405213637620Complete Vladimir de Pachmann, 4 CDs: US $135.28 + ?
https://www.ebay.com/itm/405213683460They're still at auction, so who knows what they'll
really see for?
There is not a bit or data offered in these sealed
originals that is not available legally from Marston
on CD-R, and not a character of printed material
that is not available free of charge from Marston
in their catalog.
This only reinforces the -- so obvious it's never
said -- idea that printed material is worth something
over "digital only" and that pressed CDs are worth
more than CD-Rs, particularly because Marston is doing
actually honest full reissues on CD-Rs, as opposed to
the bare boned stuff that the major labels do, who
figuratively throw their liner notes and librettos into
the trash and pretending that "print is obsolete".
So many non-readers of books berate us collectors
for reading printed books or non-collectors of
music say that anything that's not on spotify is
luddite garbage that they gloss over that what
they are hyping is a sharp reduction of the available
catalog.
