Yeah, okay Rhett!

That thing looks like a pretty nice piece of furniture, and if it's not particle board the price isn't too bad. I have 2 brushed steel CD racks that I got at Tower a couple of years ago for about $120 each. Each holds 600 CDs and I have 2 black wood ones that each hold 250. And I have a smaller one [100] on my stereo shelves that I hope to use for new stuff that I need to check out.

How do you store all those CDs?  I've been looking around for something to store 1000+ and haven't come up with much.  I don't want multiple bookcases, drawers or do-it-yourself shelves.  I found  this  but I'm a little leery of spending that kind of money on something I haven't actually seen yet.

Well, I'm not so inclined.  I'd rather spend the money and get something decent, rather than waste a lot of time trying to build something myself and having it turn out mediocre at best.

I was at IKEA a couple of weeks ago and they have a bunch of CD storage stuff at reasonable prices.

My dad built me one that holds 200 or so, which I've long ago outgrown. Too bad he's not around anymore to make me a bigger one. Maybe it will be one of those home projects someday...

IKEA makes me homicidal. I'd rather spend a little more money and avoid going there.

I love Ikea.  Or more correctly I love how every stupid thing from potholders to shelves has some umlaut filled name.  I got the Robin CD holders, hold about 225 CDs each, look respectable, but you would need quite a few for the 1800 cds.

1800 Cd's, Jesus Christ....Since your job basically requires you to listen to music, I guess a lot of that is easily written off, but foget the hours or days of music, think about the money spent. I guess the 930 Club does pay well. Who knew?

my new year's resolution is to use more words with umlauts.
 
 and to get laid at least once this year.

[twangirl]

well, that's 1800 CDs accumulated over a period of years...also the labels send us a lot of stuff, most of which I don't want, but I do keep some of them. Mostly I just need to know what it sounds like in case I have to build a show around it. I DJ also, so that's a big excuse to get more stuff...gotta stay current in my areas of specialty. Plus I can write off those purchases against my DJ income, small though it is.

Me too.
