Ask 2L to send you their Blu-ray sampler. The tracks are at 24/192. All the other Blu-ray music discs I have received are at 24/96.

I haven't used them, but know that Music Giants (aka HD Giants) also has hi-rez downloads.

My son's download music to their MP3 players. That's about all I know about music downloads.

I'm actually having a difficult time finding high resolution music on BluRay disc. Can't imagine downloading it from anywhere.
Can anyone recommend any websites or brick and mortars that sell high definition music on BluRay?
I checked Amazon and they do sell the 2L that was mentioned in another post by John. In addition, the only other 2 that I found were:
MAHLER: Symphonie No. 2 in C minor 'Resurrection' - Music Experience in 3-Dimensional Sound Reality [7.1 DTS-HD Master Audio Disc] [Blu-ray]
Gershwin: Rhapsody in Blue - Music Experience in 3-Dimensional Sound Reality [7.1 DTS-HD Master Audio Disc] [Blu-ray]
Both found on Amazon.

I've visited 2L's website but see no mention of a sampler. Do you have any more details ?

I've just received my copy from Amazon. Have not popped it in as of yet though. I'll wait until the weekend so that I can crank it to a volume that will let me enjoy it. Not too sure it's a sampler though.

B&W has something called "Society of Sound," which offers uncompressed high and standard resolution downloads. I believe it is free for the first three months during which you can download one album per month. I did not find very much music I dug, but I am sometimes impatient, so your mileage may vary.
