Forums IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ Jeddah Mali teachings No Cost Savings For MP3s v. CD Sets?

I'm sure it is an excellent price for the Seeds/Other programs but it seems to me that if there are no costs of physical CDs and packaging, should not the price of the MP3 downloads be somewhat lower than the CDs?

Then there would be even more saving for the customer besides tax/duty/shipping.

Hi GMeni!

We price the two equally because the initial production costs and their content is the same and the raw costs of the physical product is minimal. You get the same benefits and growth from either format and as you say, with the MP3 you save on shipping and handling, and, if you are outside of the USA, there are no customs charges.

I hope you are enjoying the program, whichever format you are using!

I do think its a little strange in comparison with other programs out there that there isn't a cost saving. Whilst you say the production costs are the same, I'm thinking that the majority of these would have been prepared for a physical set, and not an mp3 kit as such, so there must be larger costs involved for that, shipping etc.

I'm sure they're worth the money but the trouble is that Learning Strat has so many good programs its often difficult to decide upon which one you need. Whenever I read the intros on the website to each one, I'm like yes I need that, yes I need that etc.

I hear what you are saying, but I don't think people realize how meticulous we are about producing our products (MP3 or otherwise). The studio and writing time for each program, whether it is digital or physical, is the same. Then, for each MP3, the tracks are re-reviewed and then there are all the extras, such as adding the album art work and meta data, etc. As you say, you do save on the shipping and handling charges and international customers save on the VAT.

I'm glad to hear you are enjoying our programs, and I certainly understand your wish to add to your library. It's great to have so many options, isn't it?

All the best to you!

Wendy
