Music storage is always an issue that people face, even if you're not a musician chances are you still have a considerable collection of CDs which you need to organize and store in the some coherent manner.
There are many materials used to make CD cases. They may be classified as soft or hard cases. Soft CD cases are pouched designs in leather of plastic. Hard cases are made of molded plastic and offer more protection from impact. The most popular types of CD cases are CD jewel cases, CD plastic cases, CD visors, CD wallets, CD bubble mailers, DVD cases, and DVD folders.
Hard CD cases are known as jewel cases and are similar to audio CD cases. There are also folder-like CD cases that can store a very large number of compact discs. Also available are paper CD cases, which are paper thin, but offer protection from scratches and other surface damage.
It is recommended that one evaluates the specific needs and features required and compare with those available in each type of CD case, before purchasing one.
When choosing a CD wallet, find one that can carry the number of CDs you want to place in them. Other people make the mistake of just inserting the CDs in between pockets because is not enough space - this can actually damage the CD. Also, make sure that the pockets or sleeves are made of good quality plastic and cloth lining that would protect your CDs from dust and small stones that can scratch your CD. Check that the zipper is sewn nicely in the covers because sometimes it is the first to come off. The cover of the bag must be able to protect the CDs from snow or rain. It should also be durable enough to resist impact.
