The determinations of the mass density parameter Ω0 are examined with a particular emphasis given to the new cosmic microwave background (CMB) experiments. It is shown that the Ω0 and the Hubble constant H0 from CMB are quite consistent with those from other observations with the aid of the hierarchical structure formation models based on cold dark matter dominance with the cosmological constant that makes the universe flat. The concordance value of Ω0 is 0.25-0.45.
