When I get a CD, I typically listen to it so much in one place that I associate the CD with that place. For example, doing volunteer work in Washington, DC two years ago, I listened to the Kansas Greatest Hits all that week and now think of that trip everytime I hear those songs again.
Every time I listen to Linkin Park - Hybrid Theory, it reminds me of being in the Contour driving around town (because between junior and senior year that's practically all I did in my spare time .. drive around town listening to that CD). So I guess you can say that is my favorite.
If I owned the Safri Duo CD (still haven't bought it .. still intend to!), it would by far be my favorite CD. I have this little policy that if I like most or all of the songs of a CD I download, I buy the CD to support the musicians; that's how I ended up with both LP CD's and Evanescence CD. If I only like one or two of the songs I just keep that one or two and don't buy the CD.
The Apple Music Store is becoming intriguing, though I don't own an iPod yet. Legally owning "those one or two" songs ... nice ...
