Abstract
A case stores CDs in a drawer which slides out from between an upper cover and a lower cover. The drawer has a handle projecting forwardly from the covers and which can be easily gripped by a user. A CD retainer in the drawer has a lip which grips a CD by snap-fitting over a side edge of the central aperture of the CD. The grip is released by the user simply pressing a push button, causing longitudinal movement of the retainer because it is on an arm extending between the button and a resilient anchorage.
