Note that the Hermeneia volume is already available:

And we do have the Greek text of the Didache with English translations in the various Apostolic Fathers resources, including the older Loeb text of Lake, and the newer edition from Holmes.

Yes, but it can't be purchased on its own, and who can shell out $1200 for the whole Hermeneia set? I've been lusting after it for months, but can't justify the expense. Yeah, I could probably get it for less by contacting my sales rep, but even so, I'm going to wait and hope it goes on sale sometime, or buy it for myself for a 50th birthday present (that's a good way off), whichever comes first.

I completely agree. To say that something is available should mean as an individual work, not an inclusion in a collection. Expecially one of such expense.
Most of the above can be obtained from $5 to $20 in Paper - so should be even more practical in LOGOS.
Thank you however to let us know that if one can afford it the Hermeneia is a good work.
Blessings

Generally speaking, it's worth checking with Logos to ask if they're willing to break up the whole set (ask someone in marketing). If a collection has been available for a long time (over 2 years), they usually split it up. By asking, you get sometimes get collections moved to the top of the 'split-up' queue. However, this wouldn't apply to CD-ROM only sales (like Hermeneia), for obvious reasons. But you can still ask - you never know.
Also, I'd appreciate Milavec's work in Logos - I have it in print.

I'd love to see CD-ROM only sales go the way of the dodo once and for all.

Even more so for me. I have to pay 17.5% sales tax on physical products! As I understand it in the past some publisher agreements were for CD-ROM sales only so that the publisher, and not Logos controlled the sales and distribution. New agreements are not being made like this, but the old ones can't be changed unless the publisher is willing.

Not to mention the shipping costs!

Hopefully they will all soon see that digital distribution is the way to go. I suppose there's still a bunch of old warehouse stock that needs to be sold before they can fully convert to digital.
