Yes, go for it.
(1) I used to keep my CDs standing on end in precisely right-size
cardboard boxes (US: cartons) that supermarkets get their vegetables
and fruit delivered in, with lips and indents for stacking. But
250-300 CDs per box weigh a lot when they are stacked to the ceiling
and you want a disc from the bottommost box. Woulda been even heavier
if I ever got around to making the wooden boxes I intended... Then I
saw big books of CD disc pockets at a department store and bought
their entire stock for a few hundred euro. The books each have enough
pockets to hold up to 250 discs, booklets, and so on. A full book
takes up only three inches of bookshelf space and, while heavy, is
nowhere near as heavy as a big box full of CD disc cases and
extraneous paperwork, nor as awkward to handle.
How on earth do they fit 250 CDs & booklets in a book only 3 inches
thick? Assuming the book is 2 CDs deep and three high, a pretty large
book, that would be 40 CDs thick, or nearly 14 CDs per inch, which seems
a bit much when considering that the book needs covers and internal
pockets for the CDs.
