I use modified bookcases that I already had in my house (collecting
dust) which are not unlike what you posted in your link to that hold
over 300 dvd's each (in their store bought keep cases from Alien thru
Star Trek TOS too Zulu), for the nearly 800 dvd titles I purchased from
stores over the years to date.
What I am talking about is something strictly for recorded discs like
the kind you get off of them 15/25/30/50 count spindles, which have no
case to store them in once they have been used to record something!
BTW how I stack them is not flat but standing up on end with 4"x5"
cardboard dividers (marked A/B/C/D/E/F...) not unlike an old fashioned
book card catalog they used to have in the libraries way back in the
pre internet days (God I now feel so Old) which allows me to find any
title I have recorded in less than 2 minutes.
