Probability math (luck) mate... rare does not equal impossible.
Definitely not impossible. But seemingly more common finding discs in mob spawn areas, at least for me. And yeah, still 13 and cat a lot. Doesnt make much sense why they dont just pull the others forward in an update.

There are currently only two music discs in this version of Minecraft, Cat and 13.
Is this a change that was made in the Christmas update?
I managed to get all the music discs (eventually) by building a creeper trap (using obsidian in case any of the creepers exploded on me).
The trap design is well known, consisting of a stone pressure plate redstone wired to four adjacent pistons that push up stone blocks around the creeper, and a roof over top of the pressure plate and the pistons to keep the creeper from jumping out over the blocks. My version was a doiuble trap where I was supposed to catch both a skeleton and a creeper, but I eventually switched to just catching the creeper, then leading a skeleton over and running around to the far side of the creeper without actually catching the skeleton.
It took a very long time. It took me several nights (game time) over the course of two nights (real time) to get all of the discs. The red, grey, and blue discs dropped most frequently, and it got to the point where I was throwing them into lava to get rid of all the unwanted extras, but I eventually got all of the discs this way. One disc in particular only appeared twice, and I got killed almost immediately after getting it the first time, and I did not get it the second time until a very long time after getting all the others.
It takes a lot of persistance.
Of course I did this feat *before* the Christmas update, so I do not know if Mustache_Guy is telling the truth about only the two discs being available or not. I personally have no reason to believe 4J disabled the drops. That would be silly.
