ABSTRACT:
A container for housing optical discs includes a base and a lid. The disc is housed between the base and the lid. The base may have a retainer for releasably holding an optical disc against a surface thereof. The lid is pivotally coupled to the base by a pivot joint which permits pivotal motion of the lid relative to the base about a pivot axis that is substantially orthogonal to the plane of the disc. The container also includes a hook for coupling the container to a rod. The hook may be formed on a perimeter edge of at least one of the base and lid. The inwardmost end of the hook may terminate within the pivot joint.
