About this deal

Through Volume 21 of the series, the multi-volume sets have included 414 national and international artists and a total of 787 different songs, ranking in an impressive four gold and 19 platinum records. The Now series started in the Netherlands back in 1984 as Now This Is Music and a couple of spin-offs, such as Now Dance, a Christmas compilation ( Now This Is Xmas) and several year-end compilations. The timer_mode = 1 should be used with caution, since it polls the operating system every second and hence could slow down the system. As of November 2023, the most featured artists are Kylie Minogue with 32 followed by Robbie Williams with 31 singles, Calvin Harris with 30, David Guetta with 28, Rihanna with 27, Katy Perry with 22 and Girls Aloud with 21. The UK series has followed a double-album format throughout the series (many other foreign franchises of the Now!

Other than that, there are too many other songs, that got so much airplay, you don't want to hear them again ever. Over a hundred "main series" (not including spin-off and special edition) albums have been released to date.The record labels which make up the UK series have changed over the years but have always been controlled by EMI and Virgin Records, although Virgin Records' logo was last featured on Now! A video selection was also released featuring selected tracks from the main album, one track that later featured on Volume II of the series and two which did not appear on any Now album. From the years of 1996 to 2009 the series released an annual compilation usually in the late summer months. The track listings on the Mexican albums are only slightly different from those of the Argentine ones.

The Now series in Portugal is a joint-venture between the three major international publishers present in Portugal – EMI, Sony and Universal. Due to the Universal Music Group's purchasing of EMI in 2012, a share of the Now albums' rights were transferred over to Sony Music Entertainment (a partner in the original Hits Album brand). The concept was taken to Simon Draper (managing director at Virgin Records) and then Peter Jamieson (managing director of EMI Records (1983–1986)). A "Special Collectors Edition" of Now 1 was released on CD in 2009 as a digipak, 2015 and again in 2018 as a jewel case album.Rock Steady Crew - Hey You (Rock Steady Crew): This was another one that got played a lot at school discos, super catchy. Each album contains current and recent hit singles from Chinese artists signed to EMI or Polydor, and from British and Australian pop acts such as Kylie Minogue, Sophie Ellis-Bextor, Sugababes or Robbie Williams. Since the second installment of the series, Universal, Warner and EMI have formed a joint venture together and generally take turns to release the series.

The series is one of the highest selling compilations in New Zealand music history ( RIANZ) with multi-platinum album sales. Although the compilation of recent hit songs into a single release was not a new concept ( K-tel and Ronco, for example, had been issuing various-artist compilations for some years), this was the first time that two major record labels had collaborated on such a venture. Now 08 was the last of this series however a second series took over this time with seasons instead of volumes for example Now Winter 2005, Now Spring 2005. The Out Now series by MCA and Chrysalis was also established as a rival to the series, [6] but was short-lived and lasted only two volumes.albums in South Africa, and double compact discs are every 3 albums through Now 80 released in November 2018 as the series switched to 2 in 2019, then one in 2020, the most recent Now Album to include a double disc was Now 83 this was also the last physical album to be released as further volumes are only available on streaming platforms.
