I'd go for a majority of 2CD sets; 7 CDs is a *lot* of CDs to be
messing around with, and most people will only want a small amount of
stuff from the later CDs, meaning that even with a slow internet
connection, the cost will not be too great.  I know that were I to buy
a CD set, I would probably buy the 2 CD one.

We could always, as you suggest, offer to send people the other five
CDs after the show if they really want them and we've run out.

Incidentally, I may well be able to join you on Wednesday, by the
looks of things.  (I presume I grab an exhibitor badge at the back
door as usual?)
