My first CD was Alien Ant Farm's album. Haha.
I think I was about 8 or 9 when I bought it. |

In my head this was either last year or the year before. Where does the time go etc. Edit: the AAA album was last year or so. Not Derek buying it. Obviously, that could've been so recently as today.

I think my first CD was an Elliott Sharp Carbon CD circa 1990.

You're right. Brothers In Arms is the first album to sell 1 million copies on cd, and Dire Straits the first band to use its longer time format so that Mark Knobfler could stretch the solos for the masses. Apologies. |

what do you mean? that album rules!!! my first cd, my cousin gave me a scratched up copy of pearl jam ten but the first one i bought was: ![]() still my favorite pantera album. i have to add, though, that the only reason i started buying cds was because tapes were getting scarce and manufacturers were cutting artwork from tapes but leaving them and expanding them on cd, so i bit the bullet. |

Legacy Recordings, 1990
![]() 2-cd boxed set This was back when people where being overtly fibbed to that cds would preserve quality for years and years. Nowadays, we know you gotta buy the ultra-expensive archival quality gold-plated ones for them to really have a chance of lasting. http://www.physorg.com/news2297.html |

![]() I am one ashamed character for this. However, i bought OK Computer a few weeks later and it still plays fine. I think i only had one or two tape singles before i got my trusty old manually opening CD player in 1996 *sighs of nostalgia* |

Precisely. If someone asked me when that album was released, I would say 'recently' rather than 6 years ago. It's the memory, see, it starts going with 'old age'. I'm off to start a thread.

Nirvana's Nevermind sometime in 1992, when cd's were still packaged in the long box.

I was late to jump on the CD bandwagon because it was very hard for me to leave vinyl behind. I have since jumped off the sinking ship and am now safe and comfy in vinyl heaven once more.

All you old people who had a chance to develop good taste before CD's came out! Although that's not really an excuse, RdTv I think told me he bought a Jimi 3-disc rare comp when he was 6. For me, it was this:
![]() I know, I know, don't judge. And the funny thing is, even now when I hear it, I don't hate it. I guess it just takes me back ![]()

Word. I was about to post something to the effect of "if you only knew how much I hate CDs, you'd understand how loathe I am to respond to a post that celebrates the CD" when I saw this post. CDs suck! They always have. I only bought them when I began to find I couldn't get the music I wanted on vinyl. That was in the early 1990s. That didn't last long, thank God. Since the mid-1990s there's been a resurgence of interest in vinyl, and I hope vinyl stomps the ugly bug of CD to death.
