ABSTRACT:
A device for storing a compact disc includes: (a) a body member (2) having a top (4) and bottom (6) surfaces, a portion proximate its perimeter that turns upward so as to allow the member's outer edge (12) to turn back inward towards the center of the member so as to form a lip (14) whose edge (12) defines an opening (16) that lies above the top (4) surface, and (b) indicia (20) projecting downward from the bottom (6) surface, wherein: (i) the lip (14) is formed from a pliable material, (ii) the opening defines a space through which a compact disc can pass with specified friction due to rubbing between the edges of the opening (12) and the compact disc which is to be laid against the member's top surface (4), (iii) the indicia (20) is located on the bottom (6) surface so as to be within a space defined by the opening of a second, similar device whose top surface is placed below the bottom (6) surface so that the devices may be stacked one upon the other, and (iv) the upward turned portion proximate the member's perimeter has a height that is greater than the thickness of the compact disc.
