Re: [CGUYS] storing CD's in jewel boxes
I've used Can-Am's cabinets ( http://can-am.ca/ ) for some years, as they are multipurpose (CDs, DVDs, VHS) and store large numbers in a small space (compared to standard book-case type racks). One of their standard 3-drawer metal cabinets stores 800 CDs in jewel cases (narrow and two-drawer cabinets for smaller numbers), and the cabinets can be stacked. What I like is that their cabinets are closed, not open-faced. Keeps the dust down. They are made of heavy-duty metal. Although made of metal, they come in various colors, and you can add wheels and a top to make them blend in quite well with the other furniture (depending on the other furniture, of course).

Re: [CGUYS] storing CD's in jewel boxes
Eric S. Sande What do people do that would like to keep the CD's and jewel boxes intact? That's your archive. Put them in a box in your closet. If your drive dies you can rebuild. That's what I'm trying to do. I'm looking for something like the plastic milk crate that I put my LP's in (I have lots of those as well - I'm going to be getting rid of those). I could stack those plastic crates with 50 or 60 albums. I don't need to see the media on a reglar basis - that's what the MP3 files are for. Yes, the furniture is very nice, but for me, it's overkill. I really would like to keep the covers, etc. and will keep looking for what makes sense. -- Take care | This clown speaks for himself, his job doesn't Wayne D. | supply this, at least not directly I've seen better legs in a bucket of chicken ... * == QUICK LIST-COMMAND REFERENCE - Put the following commands in == * == the body of an email send 'em to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] == * Join the list: SUBSCRIBE COMPUTERGUYS-L Your Name * Too much mail?

Re: [CGUYS] storing CD's in jewel boxes
I did a quick search and found http://www.racksandstands.com/CD-and-DVD-Storage-C14T3.html?refid=G87.cd+towergclid=CNyHxuKqp40CFQl_Hgod3As5sg I get the impression that most folks are keeping the liner notes and the CD itself in special three-hole punched plastic sleeves that are then kept in three-ring binders. As for me, I have enough storage racks that I picked up at town-wide clean up days to last me a LONG time.

Re: [CGUYS] storing CD's in jewel boxes
I keep everything in the three ring binder type cd cases. I have too many to want to put them all in jewel cases.

Re: [CGUYS] storing CD's in jewel boxes
