Thanks for all the replies, confirming my experience that this forum is populated with extremely helpful people. As I suspected, no definitive answers. In truth, I suspect that my 'cloth ears' are a blessing in disguise since I haven't really noticed anything that sounds obviously unpleasent in my somewhat clueless buying. I agree with the comment that a lot more information from the distributor would be useful. Sometimes on Amazon there are a dozen or more different choices of the same album, with no indication of their provenance or attributes.
Yes, streaming makes some sense. Any suggestion as to which service would offer the most comprehensive choice of jazz albums and how comprehensive would this be compared say with Amazon digital download? I ought to at least dip my toe in the 'stream' although it requires a massive culture shift at my age and I would miss the ability to indulge in obsessive tagging and play music with 'ordered randomness'. Anyway, thanks for the advice.
