The Compact Disc turns 25. What was your first long box buy?
boykster:
I honestly cannot remember the first CD I bought...I remember my first CD player..... :dunno
shmokes:
Long boxes were still pretty common for me, but I never had them because I got all my CDs by signing up for Columbia House and BMG under fake names and then never buying the discs I was supposed to buy. Man, I must have done that five or six times. Got quite a small collection built-up. Anyway, they just sent me the CD and the jewel case.
RayB:
Oh, if we're talking just CD, it was The Cure's "Pictures of You" single. And I hadn't even bought a CD player yet at that point. Then I bought a player and got NIN's single "Sin" and Dee-Lite's "World Clique".
And from that point on I think I bought a new CD once a week.

Actually the birthday was a few days ago. When Danny started a thread on the birthday of the CD

Right! But this is the EXCLUSIVE cd birthday thread. I wasn't implying that the 19th was the birthday of the cd. I simply saw a blurb about it on another website and thought I'd pose a question to the board.
