My anniversary present– a DiscSox DJ case– arrived today, and it is great. It is crammed tight, but holding my entire CD collection– 619 discs– in one package. I went with the heavy-duty case (as opposed to the flight case) and let me tell you… this thing is built like a tank. I would even fly with it (though perhaps not on a regular basis). The DiscSox sleeves cost a bit more than generic sleeves, but they are constructed with better materials and an attention to detail where it counts, such as having a completely translucent side for the booklet and a matte side for the CD.

If you have a lot of CDs, I highly recommend this system. If you save the tray insert, the “DJ” style sleeves will hold the CD, booklet and tray insert– and are nice for browsing. I wish I hadn’t thrown the tray inserts away for over half my collection!

Now I need a bunch more sleeves (I still have about half the collection in generic sleeves of various heights) and another case when my next CD purchases start arriving…
