Here are the purchase links for the different Garritan libraries. I don't see an option other than Download Only.

Hi Mike, thanks for your response.
I intend to purchase the CFX Piano Library, but see there is a Full and Compact version available, both with all three perspectives, Full providing a full-fat size, and compact with a lighter design for smaller drives. Does this mean the Compact version won't provide the same quality output samples as would the Full version?
Thanks.
Following MIke's advice, contact MM directly for any specific question you might have.
I don't see any mention of a library called CFX Compact. But there is a CFX Lite, I assume that's what you're referring to. Here's a product link showing you the differene between the regular version and the lite version.

To me, it appears the only difference is additional mic choices in the full version. I don't see anything that says the lite version is of lesser quality sound wise. So just ask yourself, do you need the additional mic positions. There's no wrong answer here, it's up to you.
Full disclosure, I don't own the CFX piano. I have no personal experience with it. But I do use other sample libraries that offer multiple mic positions, so I'm familiar with the concept.
