Great Collection But Don't Forget.....
Excellent collection for the money, obviously. Don't forget to pick up I'm Breathless and The Immaculate Collection to round things out.

Good for what it is
I purchased this set while it was on sale. It came out to about four dollars an album, which isn't bad at all. You get exactly what it says-the complete studio albums. Nothing more, nothing less. It's a good set for people that haven't bought all the albums yet, or need to replace some. I was missing three of them before getting this, and I wanted a back up copy of Ray of Light since it isn't available separately anymore.Each album brings back memories of when I first heard them, or heard about them. I got the debut, Like a Virgin, True Blue, and Like a Prayer when I was a kid. The first 3 are still my favorites. When Erotica came out, I didn't like her new image or the 90s dance beats, so I didn't buy the album. I also didn't buy Bedtime Stories even though I liked the title track. Ray of Light came out and I got that one. I thought it was great. Music continued her electronica style. I was surprised to see the copy in this set contains an 11th track, "American Pie", a song I hated when it was new but I don't mind it now. My original copy only has 10 tracks. I heard American Life was her worst album and didn't buy that one either. I didn't like the song Hollywood very much and the rest seemed boring. But now I like at least half the album, especially "X-Static Process" which is one of my favorites. Confessions is a really good dance album, it has one of my favorite songs on it, "Get Together". I like all the songs except two. Hard Candy is often called her worst album now, but I don't think it's so bad. I like half of it while the other half is okay. "Dance 2night" is a great retro sounding song, like an early 80s dance/R&B/Michael Jackson style song, with a really great ending that is different from the rest of the song.There are several songs on Erotica, Bedtime Stories, American Life, and Hard Candy that I don't like. It would've been nice if Ray of Light had contained the Japan bonus track "Has to Be". While looking at this set and listening to it, you can't help but feel a little disappointed that this is not a box set that contains all her studio recordings. Songs like Into the Groove, Vogue, and Crazy For You are all required in a Madonna collection, so if you are just starting, you will have to buy the Celebration cd or Immaculate Collection (or both) to fill it out. Also Something to Remember which has songs like This Used to Be My Playground and I'll Remember. Still missing are songs like Gambler and Time Stood Still.For what it is, it's good. But you will need to buy more to fill out a collection of her best songs. An official collection of her rarer songs, extended versions, and b-sides would be great to compliment this set. I wonder why none are available? There seems to be a demand for it among her fans.

The Divorce Box-Set
This is a cheap and cool way to get all of Madonna's albums in a compact package that doesn't take up nearly as much shelf space as owning all 11 individually-cased CD's. I call it the "Divorce Box-Set" because my ex kept all the Madonna albums when we separated. : )There's not much point in reviewing the albums, because most people know what they're in for, but it's worthy to note that both the Erotica, and Music CD's each contain a single bonus track ("Did You Do It?" on the former and "Cyber Raga" on the latter). They're not stellar songs, but it's neat to have them if you're a collector. As for the packaging... each CD has a cardboard sleeve much like a miniature LP. All 11 albums are stacked (loosely) in the outer box. It's about the thickness of an old double/quadruple CD case... ala Billy Joel's Greatest Hits Vol 1 & 2, or Prince's Emancipation release. Not bad for 11 albums. And the price has even decreased since I purchased it, which makes it an awesome deal for anyone who wants all of Madonna's studio albums.I would have been willing to pay a little more to have the 3 compilation CD's included (Immaculate Collection, Something to Remember, and GHV2) but, I'm sure to many that would be repetitive.Great idea. 'Glad I bought it.

What can I say....Madonna!
Any Madonna fans should have this in their collection. Period. Item is fantastic as each CD is in their own colorful sleeve.
