The hole on disc 1 of my copy was too small to fit on either of my decks. Anyone else have this problem?

Can't say I was expecting this to be anything special after the 4 track era, which to me was pretty bland. Even though it was a compilation of early experimental tracks, I found myself bored and thinking about how much better my early tracks are than DJ frickin Shadow's early stuff. Anyway, this ended up being a pretty chill collection that is easily listenable from start to finish with the exception of a couple annoying examples of "WTF was he thinking"? It's good to have all of these unreleased tracks from the mid 90's..
