There are two substantial companies in the Naxos price range: Koch
Discover and Arte Nova. Concerning their quality in relation to the full
priced recordings, there are no absolutes. Sometimes, the bargain issues
are every bit as good, sometimes not. It's not a good idea to buy up
recordings of any label simply based on label identity. I think that most
list members rely on reviews, other list member preferences, and their own
insight before purchasing music.
