Sysyphan??? Huh? Please explain. Cheers My views on storage. I prefer seeing them neatly arranged with the titles on the side visible. I bought a dirt cheap pine shelf unit and made extra shelves so I could put more CD's onto it. I could theoretically save even more space by chopping it in half depthways so I could get two units. But for a shelf unit only 3' high I can get about 500 ish CD's (ish because of 2CD and CD singles...)
