Re: filmscanners: Negative and CD storage methods

[Hersch Nitikman <hersch@silcom.com>]

I have a 3-ring binder that holds sheets of archival translucent plastic 
material that hold two CD's each, "with or without Jewel Case".  They are 
made in packs of 10 by Fellowes Computerware (1789 Norwood Ave. Itasca, 
Illinois 60143-1095 USA)    1-800-945-4545 in US. Outside US: 630-893-1630
That might be one answer to your query.
