Jerry, my suggestion is -- don't store your CDs in jewel cases. Store them in 
a juke box or in CD album books. Scan and print what you want of the LP 
jackets at full size (no reduction necessary), and put them in a loose-leaf 
binder. Now you have two books -- one for Jacket reproductions, and one for 
the CDs. Much simpler and far less space-consuming. Jewel cases are a 
terrible way to store CDs.
