Hello O - Pleased you spent some time with Benavent's Quartet. Disappointed it did not work for you, never the less, NO PROBLEM. Glad you gave it a try.
Funny, I have a little different take on the "would you buy it" question. There's plenty I don't feel compelled to buy but still enjoy listening to on Spotify (or YouTube). The buy decision is about the must haves - things I feel are excellent all the way through (not just an isolated track) and keep coming back to; though that's not to say I haven't bought some dogs that a few months later I'm wondering what the heck I thought I was hearing! :-). The Benavent was a buy for me.
You are absolutely right though, way too much great accessible music out there to spend time flagellating.
