neither collection is really outstanding. Just a couple good songs on
each in amonct all the rubbish.

here's what i can add on the 'volume' series:

volume is a running compilation series frequently publishing otherwise
unreleased material of indie/alternative artists. easily recognizable in
your local record shop by its 'cover starlets' (rare species of fish) it
comes in a 150+ page thick multi-coloured booklet in cd format and is
recently accompanied by a cd-rom called 'it' featuring surplus multi-media
 adventures (although no thislisty ones so far).
4ad and related artists have contributed the following tracks for your
listening and collecting pleasure:
