The 75-disc tower! KDS PC Controlled CD Organizer from 2001

Finally somewhere to keep track of all your AOL trial disc's that you didn't already try throwing against a wall!

I don't know if anyone has ever mentioned it, but as someone who is partially deaf I want to thank you for always including captions with your videos! It's a lot of work to get something like that going even when outsourced, but I can say it does pay off for your viewers.

i can't believe I've been watching this channel for like 15 years and its still so damn good.

We need to crowdsource finding 126 more of these to send in so we can see the beauty of having 127 all hooked together!

One day in the distant future, LGR will post a video, saying, "Sorry, but it appears that I have featured every single odd piece of computer tech ever made. I'll be retiring now, thanks for watching."

Man imagine if that thing died on you, and you had to take it apart to get back your 75 discs

that techmoan mug tho

The idea of having something like this in the library sounds pretty cool. Like an early 2000's self checkout for movies. Lol

I could totally see a library investing in a set of these to be able to control the discs by the librarian but still put the cases out so people can look at the boxes and bring them to the counter.

Did my dad own TWELVE of the similar DC-300 Media Carousels to store over 1,000 burned Netflix DVDs? Not saying he did, but let's just say that the lending aspect of this software actually DID come in handy when you're the neighborhood Blockbuster! Good memories.

This looks like a nightmare for pressed discs but a godsend for burned discs

A 3 6 Mafia album was the last thing I thought Clint would have

"Bi Fi" is a range of meat-based snack products, mainly thin salami-style sausages. Mascot is a deranged sausage with arms and legs. The more you know!

14:10 I love the description of VCDs " VCD - Video CDs popular in the Far East, Essentially data files"

Thank you for the CD organizer video and I am glad it got some use. By the way the German floppy disk game is pronounced "bee fee". Hope you enjoy it. Keep up with the videos, my hubby and myself enjoy them very much. Have a great day.

One of my employers had a system similar to this back in the early 2000's. Used it for disc sharing, and access controls. It was for a civil engineering company that used discs from city, county, and state for embedding in CAD and Microstation drawings. We also tested a similar lending feature between offices to keep track of where a CD went and who had it. We used it for about 2 years. It was later repurposed as a Windows 2003 file server for disc images.

Pretty sure Gracenote CDDB got bought up, and started charging licencing fees to companies like this, which not only broke everything that was pointed at their servers, but also raised a lot of hackles given that the database was originally user-generated and had originally been intended to remain free and accessible to all.

I worked with and supported 100/200/600 CD and DVD jukeboxes from JVC earlier in my career. They had read/write drives built in, were SCSI-attached, and generally meant for data center use before HDD storage became a cheap commodity. They broke down frequently and were a giant pain to use. My company dropped support for them ~15 years ago and I don't miss them one bit. I heard that JVC did release a BD version of their Jukeboxes, but I didn't care about their crappy products by that point, so I can't confirm.

I had two of these, they were awesome... Until something happened to the database and i then had hundreds of disks lost in the towers unsure of where they were.

So happy to see a shout out to @CathodeRayDude - that's an excellent channel that has been under the radar for too long!
