 Re: Is this moral?

My recollection of the IMSLP landing page was that the contents may or may not be be protected in your country. It is up to the user to 1) determine whether the piece is, indeed, free of copyright, and 2) if it is under copyright, does his ethics condone his use anyway.

Unless the author of this assemblage has been very careful to insure that all pieces included are unprotected everywhere then he is opening himself and his clients to potential copyright issues.

That said, as long as (as Robin said) he says, "I've assembled this material from [source A, B, C...] and offer it to you for $X.xx, then, as Bryan and Dutchy suggest, I'd probably buy a copy myself.
