Buying a shelf off-the-shelf is not for me!

Of course, the collection of media (CD, DVD, Laserdisks, Vinyl LP, Music Cassettes, VHS Tapes) keeps growing. To keep track of the content, I use an XML-Based system designed by myself (some day, I may publish it on this page), and for the DVD's the (paid) version of Invelos' DVD Profiler. Here is my DVD collection online. But of course, just keeping track of the content is not enough — the "download" generation may be of a different opinion though — the medias must reside somewhere, physically. Buying an off-the-shelf shelf (sorry...) was not an option for a person like myself. Instead, to hold CD's, DVD's and VHS tapes (the number of which should decrease in the future) I made my own construction, that can be seen in the photo gallery. It is made with iron wall brackets holding glass boards, with aluminum profiles at the edges.

Some picture of the multimedia shelf in the constricuction phase. For more pictures in populated state, see the photo galleries of Mk3, Mk4, and Mk5.
