Amazon’s got a free sampler of symphonies from the 19th century, with 7 complete works from the Naxos catalog of recordings. There’s some good stuff here. If you’re not a classical music fan, take this chance to get some good classical music by Brahms, Mahler, Dvorak, Bruckner and more.
Update: a friend points out that there are also two other Naxos samplers:
The Very Best of Naxos Early Music and Eternal Baroque.
