I think this was around a thousand CDs. It took me a year to rip them maybe 10 years ago, and really haven't opened these since then. I honestly don't miss the format, and moving was a pain in the rear end.



I did this exact same thing since I love CDs but hate the drat jewel cases. Got tired of having them on display because honestly it makes the living room look like a music store, and all of them are ripped now to my PC system anyway so there's no need to have them readily available. I listen to CDs in my car all the time tho because they just sound better through a good system, I keep my favorite albums on CD in the car, then I have playlists on a thumb drive if I wanna listen to 80's or 90's random songs.

I'm an old and I still buy CDs too.

Any suggestions for a more compact storage method than just sticking 500 CDs on a shelf? I'm in the process of ripping but loving A I've got a long way to go. And right now they're all either

1. stacked up on the floor after ripping, or
2. in a heavy duty contractor bag in the corner of our study waiting to be ripped.

And no I don't want to toss them all after they're ripped, but the contractor bag is pretty lame.

I have all my original copy CDs in a file cabinet with the file type CD holders. I chucked all the jewel cases a long time ago because I was moving a lot and had them in folders, just recently upgraded to the file cabinet things and it works great.

I got a hard copy of The Very Best of Rainbow from Amazon (10 bux), and on CD "Man on the Silver Mountain" sounds WAY better in my car than the MP3 I have does. I swear all the MP3s I have ever downloaded are poo poo quality, the only good MP3s I have are the ones I burned myself.
