Gargoyle,

I assume that you checked out their website and understand what the product offers?   From what I've seen there are some of the items that you seem to think it is missing. The fact that is also has the information in one spot, instead of "multiple sources" as you mention makes it a unique product. There are numerous essays (many are new), a unique series of maps that link the places named in the song and give more historical information, the ability to print out the songs, midi files to hear the songs, and again it is organized so that you do not have to spend ours searching the internet for the free sites.

I realize it is not for everyone. The price may put it out of reach for some. However, it is a very attractive package for those who would desire to save time and spend it studying the works of Child.

I have not purchased a copy yet, and I do not have a stake in this company. I was impressed by the demo I was shown last year and I have invited David and Heather to come on my show to talk about it. I will certainly bring up some of the issues you have mentioned, because they are valid.
