ABSTRACT:
The invention provides an apparatus for adapting a media storage device to hold media of a size different than that for which the storage device was originally designed. The adapter apparatus is: (1) configured in the same general size and shape as a first substantially planar media unit which a media storage device was initially designed to store; (2) when in use disposed, within the media storage device in substantially the same position and manner as the first substantially planar media unit is designed to be disposed within the media storage device; and (3) configured to be capable of storing media: (a) of a size different than that for which the media storage device was originally designed; and (b) planarly oriented more or less substantially orthogonal to the planar orientation intended for the media for which the media storage device was originally designed. The currently preferred embodiment of the invention adapts a CD tower for storage of somewhat smaller minidisks.
