Storing DVD's

[mmd2k]

How do you store them, I'm starting my collection of DVD's more than half are copied, I print out the cover and put it in the black case

Then i'm wondering soon i'm goona run out of room, so should I put them in cd cases instead or cd envelopes???

printing covers and buying cases in the long run will be a lot of money wasted!

Any ideas?

I keep mine in slim CD jewel cases.Just a few days ago I finished building me a case that will hold my DVDs and backups it will be some time before I fill that sucker up

Here is mine. I printed all the covers out myself.

I would love to do that but those cases are a bit high do you know of any online stores that sell them cheap or have them in bulk

ebay LOL I have seen huge whole sale lots on ebay for a lot less then in the stores.


To save space and money you can get the Cd albums that hold 200 -300 discs each
they are not cheap in the stores though either but you can find lots of them for the price of one in a reg. store on ebay.

I first started getting my cases from ebay but, then (don't laugh!) I actually went to the local movie store after hours and dug through their dumpsters and found boxes full of cases. LOL

I am surprised my Dad hasnt come accrosed those yet.
This may sound crazy but my dad is some what disabled and cant work he picks stuff out of garbages all the time and has sales.

I was buying them off line, I can't remember the site but I got it off of cdcovers.cc, there was a link, worked out to 27 cents/case..just went to a local video store that is closing out...bouth 250 of them for 10 cents each..but I am running out of room as well..have 2 7' book shelves, have the dvds on their back, 3 rows per shelf and I only have room for about 40 more then I am screwed

Why not keep the copies in the original cases? I just put the copies in little cheap plastic sleeves that I store in the original cases... as my DVD shelf is already 99% full, and I don't have room for that many boxes.

I like to keep the seperate for the same reason I make the copies...keeps the orginal safe...away from the kids hands...

I keep my backups in a big cd/dvd wallet. Just takes up less storage space for me.

[drfsupercenter]

I do that for DVDs that are homemade.

Since these are only my backups I don't get too fussed on the storage. The originals are hands off for the kids though.

@ jmet Those are very impressive!
