How's the quality of the HDCD's from China/Ebay

I'm thinking of buying some HDCD's on Ebay that come from China. What are people's experience with buying from China and what's the quality of the HDCD's themselves?

Thanks,
Mike

They are not official releases therefore I would suggest it is very probable that it is possible to put code on the discs that enable HDCD decoders and as Spiritualized says the volume is boosted but crucially the discs aren't actually HDCD at all. Surely a waste of time.

If anybody wants to direct me to the information that Radiohead and Coldplay exist officially on HDCD I'll eat my words. The bootleggers realise HDCD attracts audio fans hence the clever pirating of these discs.
