I have a 200 capacity storage binder from Vaultz that I keep my free tracks and purchased tracks in. I managed to fit extra pages and have more than 200 CD's in the case. It also has combo locks so that you can lock your shit up after you are done playing.
And I also carry a 24 capacity UDG CD Wallet which holds CDs containing the most recently purchased tracks. My UDG wallet fits inside the Vaultz binder too!!!
I organize my CD's in 2 categories....FREE and PURCHASED. I fit as many tracks as possible per CD and in the order that I acquired the tracks. I have the FREE cds in the front of the binder and the PURCHASED cds in the back of the binder, and all the new PURCHASED cds in the cd wallet. I usually only play recent shit anyway so it is convenient to flip through the little wallet right up there on the decks. When I need an older track or whatever, I dig through the binder and I have a pretty good memory so I know where everything is at.
I also print directly onto my CDs the full tracklistings. My epson printer kicks ass. Word.
damn that metal case looks legit. I don't know if i could keep a straight face though walking into a gig with one of those though.

im one who uses a visual trigger for my tracks, e.g vinyle sleeves, usually i burn a few tracks from the same artist, or a few tracks from the same label, or a few mixes of a individual track, i try to avoid burning single tracks to a cd but i have a got a few, im also a big fan of www.cdjshop.com, some piccies for potential ideas

I do it almost exactly the same way, my picture on the first page is offline, and I can't edit my post
So here again a picture of my cd's

Atm they look like this, with bpm & track length
A tutorial would be great! I've never tried cd-printing but looking at your cds, I am curious. So please share your secret
Also, could you list the stuff you need for doing this? (any specific printer type, label maker program, etc.)
Thanks

fuck im having doubts about my organizing method again
since i burn 1 release per cd, and then set a color to the cd to match a genre, what if i have a track thats trance, which is remixed into breaks on the cd? what kind of color should i put then? half a color?
