Its already here - our band recently bought an arrangement of
Rhapsody in Blue on a CD. The cost was $2- or 300.00, but it
included the right to make as many copies as needed. The major
caveat: once you cut the wrapping, it was yours - and there was no
score or instrumentation listed on the jewel case label. Since we
were trying to match arrangements with an existing one (ordered by
someone else as a rental, with far too few parts for the size group
we are) - this was a MAJOR detail.
