MMMBop: The Collection is a 2005 compilation album by Hanson on the Spectrum label, owned by Universal Records. Released in Europe, it is composed of 17 previously released tracks from the albums Middle of Nowhere, Snowed In, Live from Albertane and This Time Around.

The compilation garnered some controversy due to its release around the time of Hanson's documentary "Strong Enough to Break," which chronicled the troubles Hanson encountered in trying to release their third album before leaving Island (Hanson's former label Mercury had been merged into Island, which is owned by Universal, the distributor of this compilation.)
