For the CDJs out there... How many remixes on a cd?

How many remixes do you guys put on a cd? Just one per CD, or all of the remixes you like of the same song, or even is there anyone who puts different songs onto the same cd? j/w since I'm planning on investing in two CDJ100S to add to my Technics

I have 2 TTs and a double cd deck.
I used to put allot of different songs on a cd,but since a short time I put 2,3 or 4 EP's on a cd (so all the remixes/other songs on that EP).

usually 5 or 6. It depends how many rmx of a song you have.

I only put one track per cd. CDs are cheap and they don't take up a lot of space. I have three 104CD cases that I rotate my tracks around through.

about 6 tracks

I don'T use CDs anymore but what I used to do was putting any songs (mostly different) average of 10 tracks per CD... and I was making a double of it...
So if ever, I wanted to mix 2 song that was on the cd... I would used the double of the cd for the second song.
I labeled all my cds with a number and a letter like "24-A" and "24-B"
for example....

Then of course I had a lot of songs.... so I would make a list of all my songs on Microsoft Excel based on the artist name, the title and the version of the song, also the on which cd it was and of course the track number... I even left a blank space for the BPM in case I would want to calculate it and write it down...

So it would look like this:

Artist _ Title _ Version _ BPM _ CD-Track

Insigma _ Avalon _ Midway _ 139.7 _ 24-3
Ronsky Speed _ Iris _ Original _ 138.6 _ 16-7

Then I could place them by alphabetic or numeric order based on the information that I juged the best to use when i want to find a track quickly... Usually I was arranging them by the artist name... By the way there's a fonction for that on Excel)

When you're done... print it and "voil� !"
bring the sheets with you when you go mix somewhere with your CDs

I usually put on a cd only 1 or 2 remix of the same songs,my favourites and then i put other songs to full my cd.

Different tracks on a cd till it's full.
