My only concern with these things, is the plastic sleeve can interact with the printed logo on the cd and actually stick to and remove the printed logo(wholly or partially). I've seen this twice now with someone elses ceedee's. Proceed with caution!
Thanks for the warning.
I figured there had to be a downside.
Way too convenient.
Now, if someone would just invent
some material that won't stick.
I like the compact nature of the book idea.
plasticizers to keep them soft. This stuff leaches out or the light stuff evaporates and the leftover stuff gets sticky.
Unlike audio, the market for good CD wallets is apparently too small to bother with, except for leather cases, still with sleves that can stick to your CD's. $5 wallets leave little room for quality liners.
I may have custom shelves made this summer. I found a cabinet shop that does good hardwood veneer custom work with no frilly wood trim at a very reasonable price. I'll probably have it made 6' high x 2' to 3' wide with the shelves 6" deep and 5.5" high. A 2' wide unit will hold about 300 single jewel boxes, and a 3' one would take about 450. Before I jump into the fray, I will re-check and post leads for ready-made units. I know use Hills Products veneered particle board drawer systems stuffed into a beautiful old Barzilay tambour door style record cabinet, but the combination uses up far too much space per CD stored, and it is overflowing.
