I think one of the purposes of this little exercise is to get all of us to work together and participate. Since it doesn't seem that too many are, including yourself, Iron, 11 per disc and one selection per person on each disc seems reasonable. In my opinion, if you're not going to play the game, don't try and change the rules. I'm sure if we get an influx of folks adding songs, we can add some to disc one if needed - or we can have a multiple disc box set. Think about it - if every person who posts/lurks added one song, we would have a very interesting and enjoyable collection, albeit quite eclectic. Why not just roll with the flow and have fun with it like the rest of us instead of finding fault with the parameters. That goes for you too, DMD. Other than picking a version that you like best of a given song (like I did with I'll Tag Along) why make things more complicated than they have to be by wondering if he would rerecord or use existing recordings - just add a song and have fun with where it takes us.
