Mine was a set by the Cure called Integration. It contained the CD singles for "Lovesong," "Fascination Street," "Lullaby," and "Pictures of You" off of Disintegration. And it came with a poster!
Yep, I was one cool 7th grader.

Use Your Illusion I and II.
I was ... 14? (I think it was 1991.) I looked 12. There was one of those parental advisory stickers. The clerk didn't seem to care much.

) . . . anymore

When did everyone else get their first CD player?

I actually got my first CDs before getting that stereo. I would use my brother's CD player.

Weezer.
I am not really sure why I bought it on CD though, because the only person that had a cd player in my house at the time was my sister (a cheap Craig boombox). I can remember dubbing the cd onto tape and listening to it on the way to school for most of fifth grade. I am glad that I bought the CD though, since it is one of the only albums I bought as a young kid that I have still hung onto.
My first cassette?
I think it was a single of Motownphilly by Boyz II Men. 
Yeah, my tastes have improved a lot since then...My first cd player?
Not counting computers, I received a (what seemed to be light) 3 or 4 lb Sony Discman in 1996. Then, in 2000 I bought one of those Aiwa Mini Systems with the cd, tape deck, and radio. I hope to one day build a traditional component "HI-FI."
