DVD/CD furniture...any "nice-looking" recommendations?

I have a CD rack that holds my 450+ CDs. Functional but ugly and cheap.

I have an old crummy bookcase I use for my 140+ DVDs. Again, functional but ugly and cheap.

I am looking for some nice-looking furniture for these. An "all-in-one" would be excellent, but I don't know if anything out there will hold all of that stuff.

Thanks for any help!

Here are a number of threads with good ideas (and there are probably more):

Pricey, but great looking, flexible, and very functional. You're not likely to find anything better.

I like the looks of the mission style dvd racks, anyone have any experience with these?

They look nice, but IMHO they don't hold enough for what you're paying. I would need about 3 of them!

This suggestion is for the folks who aren't looking to "display" their DVDs.

I picked up some old wood cabinets at an estate sale a few years back. They are like kitchen cabinets but taller (about 7 feet) and more shallow with four swinging doors and 7-8 shelves. I really like that it's fully enclosed. I think I paid $20 for it and I'm just now getting close to outgrowing it (or at least having to move some TV series out of there (Buffy and Angel alone take up half a shelf).

I'm guessing you could pick something like I have new from a cabinet builder or from home depot for a pretty fair price...certainly cheaper than some of the specialized media stuff, probably more functional, and you could get it to match your furniture.
