Two totally unrelated items but I'm fishing for ideas and recommendations.
  1. My CDs are a mess. I'm looking for a better, space saving solution. I'm considering swapping jewel cases for Jewelpaks or Viewpaks
  2. to save space. Anyone have any great ideas?
  3. Any good ideas for storing xmas card lists and addresses so that next year, the process will be streamlined and easy?
The snitz bunch are always resourceful and full of good ideas so I'm hoping to find some good advice. Happy holidays everyone!

1- I put all my CD's in CD cases and stashed the jewel cases in a box.
2- I have a name database that lets me flag any entry as a CHRISTMAS entry and then print a report with all the names. I think you can do something like this with Outlook, my app is a home-built app.

How many CD's we talking about here ? These are quite cool but a tad expensive

I personally have all of my CD's (with track lists) in an Excel spreadsheet. Rather than try to keep the CD's in order whenever I buy a new one, I just have them numbered. Then I keep them in a CD binder that holds up to 350 CD's... I'm getting ready to start on my second binder.

Since I am not only a listener of music, but an avid collector, I don't like to play my originals so I encode them to mp3 and store the tracks on my 200GB Media Drive. I then permanently store my cd's in boxes which I have also tracked in a database I have created for easy retrieval at a later date. I now just listen to my mp3's and not the originals and when I need to travel I transfer the ones I want to my IPOD for remote listening.
