I've got a copy of the same Dan Dean and find them pretty reasonable.
It's disappointing that Worra's Place is now completely gone, or I
can't find it. It was a good resource for small, free Lo-fi type gigs.
Also GlassTrax used to sell Bigga Gigga of which I bought maybe 10 of
the libraries - mostly synths like Mellotron, Arp, String Boxes, etc.
they were fun but don't seem available anymore. I'm not even sure if
Garritan actually sells the GOS/GOS Lite products anymore or whether
it's just the GPO product now. I have a copy of GOS Lite but found it
difficult to use well. Nice sounds though.
I've been so focused on using what I own that I hadn't noticed what a
mess is for the new sampler user. Seems to me the Linux community
might do well to focus on one or two players - GPO and maybe the
Kontakt player - and then make sure they work well on Linux using wine
or whatever. Even non-GPL LinuxSampler won't help you if you can't buy
samples anymore...

I'de like to have some info/pointers on
samples for classical music
(especially orchestra) in the situations when one has to provide a
'virtual' performance.
I have bought Giga samples from Dan Dean and Big Fish Audio and are very happy
with them, but have not tried the strings (are planning to buy London Solo
Strings in Gig-format). Here are the links (and listen to the samples, sounds
really good!):
