How do you store yours?
Currently, my DVDs live on a shelf, in a cupboard under the stairs.
Just wondering if there's any decent storage shelves for DVDs yet? Don't need CD storage, as my CD player holds 200 CD's. Got around 100 DVD's and expect that to double by a years time. Anyone got any suggestions? |

I'm in the same boat Jiff, I've got a couple of racks, but they simply don't hold enough..
Habitat and Next had a couple of nice units iirc..

My DVDs are stuck in the corner ontop of the gas unit. A good rack would do nice.

I have two standard wooden shelves in my room. One is for DVDs, one has old CDs, videos and other random rubbish. My DVD shelf is now full
 So I need to migrate to the other one I think!

Found this whilst browsing through the argos catalogue.
 Cat number875/8385. Holds 80 DVD's and is £20. edit: a little bit odd; catalogue says 80 DVD's, website says 68...
There's a thin person in every fat person.....that's because they just ate them.

I have this strange arrangment of cubes from IKEA which looks very modern and holds my 100+ DVD's, also was quite cheap!
Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths,
Enwrought with golden and silver light, The blue and the dim and the dark cloths Of night and light and the half-light, I would spread the cloths under your feet: But I, being poor, have only my dreams; I have spread my dreams under your feet; Tread softly, because you tread on my dreams. |

Ditto with the remark about argos furniture, it's *really* poor.. you could do a better job with a couple of planks of wood and a bit of plywood for a backing..

Using Ikea shelving here as well, just one big shelf for DVDs, CDs and loads of other stuff.
