Are there any collections of calls that are more comprehensive?

I guess there's a problem with regional variations too for some species. For 
example, the White-plumed Honeyeater calls on the BOCA CDs are barely 
recognisable compared my local ones (Melbourne).  I haven't checked where it 
was recorded.
