~Official DVD Storage Thread~
My DVD storage situation is out of control! I'm running out of room and ideas. Please share pictures of your storage units and/or clever ideas to keep them hidden away but neat and organized.
Thanks in advance!
I'm sorry if this should be in OT, but I thought it was a DVD thing!

First off, what are you using now to store your DVD's?
What size room do you have to hold them in?
What kind of solution are you looking for, do you want them readily available, do you want them hidden, do you want them all displayed?
I use this to hold my DVD's, but mine is just about full, and i'm debating what to do next, since I'm looking to buy a house, gotta see if these will work with my decor (when I find one of course)
You can get some ideas at www.thejungles.com

I don't want them on display for all to see. I want a storage unit that I can keep in a closet or out of the way. I really want to see the choices other people have made because if there is something interesting, then I will use that. It gets more difficult with every DVD I add to the collection. I store them in a German "schrank" which belongs to my landlord. It will not be going with me when I go back to the states in November.

I built enough shelving to hold another 5 or 600 discs...which will be my limit...I think. anyway, instead of looking for something to put them in while in the closet...maybe make the closet the actual storage unit. just a thought.

I made a shelf once, but had to leave it behind when I moved accross country. A shame.
Now I just used some book case with adjustable shelfs/ I'm quickly running out of room though.

There are plenty of threads out there if you search for "store OR storage" in titles only in the DVD Talk forum. Here's the most recent one:
