This question popped up when talking to a friend here on ArmorGames...

"Do you remember what the first compact disc was you purchased?"

Let's face it... the compact disc is already an 'older' type of data storage, but still not completely wiped out by the current most popular song format, the mp3! And even though it's bound to happen someday, with current technology and all... it's a pretty sturdy fella to deal with! =)

I'll throw in my memories as well... the first two compact discs I bought (or rather, was allowed to buy since they were sponsored by mum) were "Me So H****" by 'The 2 Live Crew' and "This Beat is Technotronic" by 'Technotronic'.

So... how about your first cd's? Which was it/where they? Do you still listen to them now? Do you still own them or have you gotten ridd of them already? And tell us something about the artist(s) and/or song(s) please!

Looking forward to your memories

Either Rush-Moving Pictures or Van Halen-Best of Volume 1. I still have them, don't use them much anymore though

The first 2 I bought were probably The Dark Side of the Moon or In Rainbows by Radiohead.

Mine was either Guns n' Roses greatest hits of AC/DC High Voltage. My tastes have shifted toward the progressive side now though, so these CD's rarely get played anymore.

Star Wars soundtrack (first movie). Then I realized that the end of the theme song was different from the version on Vinyl so it's a bad memory.

When I started coming into my own money, I bought most of my songs on iTunes. Since I'll be driving soon, I value the CD much more. First CDs I bought:

1) Parachutes - Coldplay
2) Mylo Xyloto - Coldplay (As well as on iTunes)
3) Transatlanticism - Death Cab for Cutie
4) The Invitation - Thirteen Senses
5) Oh! Gravity - Switchfoot

These are actually all the actual CDs I own; I bought all of them within 15 minuts of each other. The wonderful joys of Amazon. ^^

...by the current most popular song format, the mp3!

Maybe popular but not to me. Mp3 is a garbage format, flac is better.
As if it wasn't crappy enough, some retard created joint stereo which
takes the details from both sides and turn it into a vomit flat and non dimensional sounding insult to my ears. In other word, you lose the stereo effect.

Sorry for the off topic rant.

The first CD I ever owned was one by Britney Spears which had that song "Hit me baby one more time" or whatever the name is, on it.

It was given to me before I was ten. I didn't develop my own taste for music till about fifteen :P

Of my current collection the first album I purchased would be Joyful Rebellion by K-os. I still love that album. It's perfect.
