    This is pretty cool, but $170 is still expensive in today’s dollar

      Also it’s not flexible. It’s only useful if you really want to organize around 100 CDs. Having 60 in there might look weird

        Lets be honest. The type of person to buy something like this isn’t going to have only 60 CDs to put in there. They’ve probably got a CD mountain lying around.

          I used to sell furniture back then, we sold many cd and DVD racks. But we had one big carousel that held about 200 CDs and 160 DVDs. One guy bought four of these. I wonder what he’s doing with them now…

            I still have a couple of my Sauder DVD shelves from the early 2000’s, they hold some DVD’s, PS4 games, switch cases, Blu-rays, a couple paperbacks, and a few pop figs now.

    They all looked, and felt, cheap AF just like the one in the pic. They were a thing too for DVD collectors if memory serves.

    Why did they make this carnival ride

    into a CD-organizer?

    I also remember elaborate organisers like these would break easily.

    Wow, a whole 68.3GB of lossless bitstream audio, directly at your fingertips! Twenty years ago I would have loved to own one of these. $50 says the motor would break in a year, though.

    That seems excessive when you can just organize them.

      That is a way to organize them.

        I already have a couple external drives and some backed up CDs/songs on certain devices, but that looks like a really cool way display the CDs I have in their jewel cases compared to just using a drive.

        what the hell is that? It looks like WD40 made a brick, that someone etched holes into and then slapped on a sticker

        This will fit about a hundred times the amount of CDs after lossless compression compared to tower

        And yet, it doesn’t give the same vibe

    Shit, I need this today! I have hundreds of CDs sitting in organized boxes in the garage.

    I don’t recall ever seeing anything like this. Cd autochangers had a market, not this
