All countries have different deals like this. I'm sorry you cannot get it for free where you are. TapeOp did do a book compiling some early stuff http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0922915601/qid%3D998546836/sr%3D2-5/r ef%3Daps%5Fsr%5Fb%5F2%5F2/104-0011666-1453529 I haven't read it, so this is not a personal recommendation, but the two reviews on this page reflect what I really like about the magazine. It has much less to do with just the latest equipment a lot more to do with the people and how they work. Since you can get the book for something like $15, it seems like a good start. The latest issue of TapeOp had a good article on sub-group compression. I've been trying this for 2-3 weeks now and I like how it's working so far, although I wish I had a better arsenal of outboard compressors. Ron probably gets to do this sort of stuff far more than I.
