Does the download link web address itself have MP3 in the address? I ask because sometimes with The Prodigy store download links, I was able to replace MP3 with FLAC or WAV in the web address and it gave me the different formats.

Not for this one as far as I can see. The URLs end "download.php?f=18167" for example, so I could mess around with the number to see if I get different formats maybe but ... effort. 😂

Adding

&type=flac

to the end of each MP3 download link worked for me. The FLAC versions are still 16/44.1. I don't know how one would get the HD audio versions.

i've yet to listen to and dissect the entire Series 1 release, but i immediately have to note that the Another Silent Way medley is remarkable. i firmly believe that is the craziest track they have made in a long time. ASW is already one of my most favourite DRIFT tracks, but in this continuous form (a return to the prolific slashed title tracks from the 90s!) with all these wild spoken word bits ("Better Than Diamonds" is going to be stuck in my head for a long time), it's a completely new beast. i looked forward to the Reykjavik snippet the most and whilst it hasn't been entirely replicated in this definitive form, i couldn't be any more satisfied.

&type=wav works to get a 24-48 WAV version!

Told y'all. Happy it worked for you. I have the Drift Series in 24-48 FLAC, but missing the Sampler in Hi-Res.
