Late 1970s John Barry is always great to have.

Why were some of Intrada's 2-Disc sets -- which feature the LP presentation as a secondary disc -- priced at only $19.99 or even $24.99? Why is THE DEEP priced at a steep $29.99? Just curious.
Well, My educated guess....
It cost a sh**load to produce and they have to charge a higher price to help cover those costs.
Given that one album had to be licensed from UMG and the other from SONY, that would tend to support this theory.

The slightly higher price might slow down sales a bit and that's fine by me.
I also agree with Ford. It looks like Intrada had to work real hard to make this dream come true so I think that's fine.

And me also. Intrada needs to take a look at its webpage settings. In my antivirus program, I can't override the blocking of the tracks without actually pasting the URLs of the samples into a list of webpages that I am specifically approving despite the warning against doing so, then shutting down the computer and re-starting. This full sequence for each individual sample. Screw that! I have no such problem on any other company's samples, so Intrada loses a potential customer. I'll save my money for something else. I'm sure this will sell out anyway, so I doubt they care. The one track I was able to listen to without my computer exploding was the Theme on Disc 2, and the sound was terrible.
Dana, I wouldn't throw the baby out with the bathwater (to coin a cliche.) Are you on a Mac or PC? What browser and version number (and anti-virus program) are you running?
I got this message ONLY with Firefox, but not with IE 8, Safari or Opera running under Windows 7, 64-bit. I'm also running the Avast anti-virus system, and have both software and hardware firewalls, and when I told Firefox to ignore the warning and proceed anyway, I was able to play the samples perfectly. (Regardless, I reported this directly to Doug and Roger.)
Regardless of this odd browser hiccup, this is a great release!

Probably depends on the costs of manufacture/licensing. And guys, $29.99 is still very cheap for boutique label releases. Keep in mind that while people gripe about CD prices being so high, they haven't gone up in price for about, oh, 18 years. I'm not saying $30 in these times isn't a good chunk of money, but just saying it's not in any way unreasonable. I'm stoked for this one. Love Barry!
