So very much Stockhausen

After almost a month of tedious downloading I am now the proud owner of Karlheinz Stockhausen's complete recorded works. If you want music that will put you at ease this isn't it. If you want music that some people would angrily deny is music at all I think we should talk... It's that kind of music.

There's a real sense of accomplishment to finding this torrent and actually downloading it because of how long it took.

I love this Brian Eno Quote that the Avantguard is like research music: you might not want to listen to it but you're glad someone did it.

I'd love to download all Stockhausen's works but I thought they were not available except via CDs from Stockhausen Verlag. How did you do it?
