ABSTRACT:
A storage device for holding a collection of individual units of media such as, but not limited to, compact discs, DVD's, CD-roms, mini discs, video game cassettes, cassette tapes, VCR tapes, microcassettes, and the like, includes a frame structure having first and second longitudinal frame members maintained in spaced apart, parallel relation and a plurility of carriers supported transversely between the longitudinal frame members in a series of rows. The carriers each include a base and front and rear transparent panels extending upwardly from the base in spaced parallel relation to one another for holding one or more of the media units therebetween in a generally upright position. The carriers are normally maintained in a rearwardly inclined position and are independently movable, in a flipping motion, about a transverse pivot axis through a range of movement between the rearwardly inclined position and a forwardly inclined position. As the carriers in each row are flipped forwardly, the entire front covers of the media units are visibly exposed in the next successive row, thereby providing for easy visual identification and location of each of the individual media units stored within the device.
