I was surprised and thrilled to find "Gatchaman TV Original BGM Collection" and "Scientific Rescue Team Technoboyger" (AKA: Thunderbirds 2086) at very affordable prices. One on Ebay the other on Amazon.
Gatchaman is pretty abundant and cheap online and I was thrilled to find Scientific Rescue Team Technoboyger. I didn't think I'd find something as obscure as that! I'll have to start doing other random searches for classic anime titles.
Question: How do you categorize foreign titles, by their original title or by their English names? Gatchaman or Battle of the Planets? Scientific Rescue Team Technoboyger or Thunderbirds 2086?

Nice find! I often have to resort to an importer to get affordable Japanese discs--too many Amazon sellers have ignorantly sold me Miya or Ever Anime bootlegs for me to trust them anymore.

I use a composer family name/title system, filing alphabetically by composer and then alphabetically by CD. If there is an English name printed on the packaging I'll use that, otherwise it gets filed under its most familiar English language name to me, sometimes with a post-it on the cover to remind me.
Thanks for your reply. I ask because in some instances I may not remember the original title and have difficulty finding it at a later date. While I'm very familiar with Gatchaman I'd instinctively look for Battle of the Planets. On the other hand I'm probably not going to remember Scientific Rescue Team Technoboyger when looking for Thunderbirds 2086. I don't categorize by composer though, just the title alphabetically.
