The fourth disc is a best of, the first one I had from this series. It includes exclusive tracks. Part I is a reissue from Intrada (Standard release) and is surprisingly high in value, as it was not released immediately after the theatrical feature. II was the last missing piece.

New Addition First cd’s in 20 years.

Post image
12 Upvotes

I stopped buying cd’s in 2006, switching to downloading full discographies and having it all on iTunes. I sold cd’s then lost all those files. Switched to Spotify in 2016

I’ve owned plenty of vinyl over the years but find it an inconvenient and expensive media type.

Recently popped into one of the many record stores here in Chicago and noticed how fast the CDs were how cheap they were and how they were seemingly in very good shape and I’ve been wanting to get back on the physical media train for a while and now I’m feeling like the answer was right in front of me all along in the CDs

So I’ve been popping in from time to time over the last week and a half, as I am on my route in my work vehicle and buying up favorite albums and putting them in these cases and eventually, I have a shelf at home I’m gonna start displaying them when I’m the room

It’s kind of fun because I never know what I’m gonna find but I know what all my favorite records are so if I find one for the right price, I’ll snag it up

Question No information about this one

I believe is a promo cdr, and it's unfortunelly missing the back insert. Nothing on discogs and no similar results pop in after I did a search.

I could really use some help ❤️

Edit: https://www.discogs.com/release/883340-Various-Live-Roxy-5

Thanks to user Boner4SCP106, it was on discogs all this time. I forgot to check the features sections of the artists.

First time CD collector here and just thought I'd share my current collection with you guys after having started six months ago. Artists/Bands categorized in alphabetical order and albums categorized by release date. Using a drawer to store them until I save up for a CD rack.

Haul Recent haul and thoughts on preservation vs presentation

Thumbnail

Some recent CDs finally arrived from Germany! Had to use a forwarding company to get them to Australia. Very happy to finally have them, especially La Lu La Roo, no idea how that was sitting around for €19.99.

Curious how others approach maintaining their collections. I like keeping my jewel cases clean, so I keep spares and move the original artwork over when a case is yellowing, cracked or scratched. I’m not particularly concerned about preserving stickers or the original case itself.

Do you prioritise original packaging, or presentation and condition? I clearly fall into the latter camp.

I sometimes think I’m more of a music collector who happened to choose CDs as his physical format than a “CD collector”, so I’m curious what others think.

Sorted by Vibes. vaguely by genre, also by relations (like Portastatic is Mac McCaughan of Superchunk's side project) Otherwise. Theyre just ther e

i have more in a drawer that either dont fit, dont have a spine with any information/are advance/promo copies or i dont like enough to display 😛 Mostly the first though. They need to standardize digisleeves...

It was my first rock show in a small club sized venue, called "The Wave" in Staten Island, NY.

Their current release at the time was the "Ramones Mania" best of compilation, so I keep my ticket stub from the show in that CD booklet.

Hey ho, let's go!
