ABSTRACT:
A selector mechanism having a plurality of parallel spaced vertically aligned compact disk holders is disclosed. Each holder has storage positions for a number of compact disks. A pair of compact disk player assemblies which can alternatively access each storage position are movably aligned with the holders. By alternatively moving the assemblies from rest positions beyond the stack of holders to positions corresponding to selected holders the assemblies can continuously pick up and play selected compact disks without pauses between selections. A method of using the mechanism is also disclosed.
