I have the CD-ROM version of this they features a full orchestral score in red book (live) audio that can just be played in a CD player. I didn’t actually even know there was a MIDI score.
I buy DVD/Blu-Ray collections and rip them. Facebook marketplace (the only thing I would ever think of using FB for, and obviously in a containered browser, etc), OfferUp, EBay, etc make it more affordable, and also really make me realize how little I want to bother having a copy of.

Did the judge in the facebook case now really say that it was ok to pirate the materials in the first place because there was no market harm? That seems impossible, it seems like it would open up a huge loophole in copyright law.
Wait that’s what you would do if you had nothing to lose? Why wouldn’t you just do that now?
And it was powered by Linus Torvalds!
I don’t think the Mediaworkstations a-X2P ever came out of “limited production”, but with an EPYC processor, desktop GPU and 6 screens it still meets the mark IMO.
[Edit]: Sorry, a pair of EPYC processors. And it’s a shipping product.
A couple prices that went up also have come down, but not by as much as they went up.
I wish there was a good way to track this, because you know a bunch of corps are going to be trying to pass the buck (while also keeping it)
If I/O speed is important the challenge will be getting lots of nvme slots in a small form factor. Many atx motherboards have bifurcated pci-e slots that can be converted to manage 2 nvme drives at once (in addition to on-board nvme slots) but I don’t know if matx boards do that, so if you wanted 3+ drives that would be the first thing to consider. If you just want a bunch of sata ssds there are more options, but all considerably slower.
