Back in the vinyl days DGG* had a reputation for high-
quality vinyl combined with technically superior 
recordings of the best performers. I've been wondering
how to find the best recordings in the present day. 
Mainly for classical music. 

A while back I had a US$10 gift certificate at Sam
Goody and eventually managed to find their miniscule
classical music section. Most of the CDs were priced
around US$3.99 for a 5 CD set. Clearly not the best of
all possible recordings.
