The hardest part of downsizing my collection is that I didn't want to throw away or fold the inserts in either my CDs or DVDs.

For the DVDs, I found a company that sells binder inserts that hold the discs and the artwork/booklet on ebay.



For the CDs, I came close to getting binder inserts, but I decided against it. All of the commercially available binder pages for CDs don't hold the tray card (without folding it). Bags Unlimited have just released inserts that purport to solve the problem, but when I received them, it turns out that they are poorly engineered.

In the end, I went with JewelSleeves. They are thin and sturdy, and have separate pockets for the CD, booklet and tray card. Once we move, I'll buy one (or two) of their cabinets for the collection.

There's another company called DiscSox that makes similar CD sleeves as well as neat DVD booklet-style protectors, but JewelSleeve's design has a slight edge (top loading).
