How do you all store CDs?

If you have the wall space, build or have someone build you some shallow, narrow built-in bookcases. You can use cheap wood and stain it cherry or spring for real cherry. My brother built some for me one weekend out of pine, I painted them white to match the wall, and I can now store about 3000 CDs on the back wall of my listening room, well behind my speakers. I had him make the bottom shelf double-tall so LPs could fit in. It looks really good and cost about $425, labor and materials included.

I also have the Ikea veneer stuff. Looks a lot better than the metal stands you get at Walmart, etc.

As they ask at "Car Talk"--how do you feel about your wife?
You can always just leave 750 cd's laying everywhere around the house! Otherwise spring for some custom cherry cabinets--that's a great way to justify that you did it just for her!

You mean it is a bad thing to have them stacked all over the place? Damn, I have some work to do.

jposs: here's what i find a neat solution, available in cherry:
