A carousel for storing and displaying compact disk albums or cases comprises one or more reels rotatably mounted on a turntable base where the reels include a central core and a pair of parallel spaced-apart disks having sets of parallel ribs disposed at equal angular positions around the core. The dimensions are such that the CD case readily fits between the pair of disks and are held upright by their engagement with the ribs formed on the disks. When a reel populated with a plurality of CD cases is placed on the base, it may be rotated so as to bring the cases into view for selection of a particular recording for play.

A carousel for storing and displaying compact disk cases comprising: (a) a base including (1) a stationary circular tray, (2) a spider including an annular hub, a concentrically disposed annular rim surrounding said hub and a plurality of spokes forming said hub to said rim, and (3) a plurality of wheels journaled for rotation about axles secured to said rim and riding in said stationary circular tray; and (b) at least one storage reel rotatably mounted on said base, said storage reel including first and second circular disk members, each having an inner and an outer surface with means for joining said disk members together in parallel, vertically spaced-apart orientation relative to one another, and each including a plurality of pairs of parallel ribs projecting from said inner surfaces of said first and second circular disk members, the spacing between adjacent parallel ribs being slightly greater than the thickness of a compact disk case, and the spacing between said inner surfaces of said first and second circular disk members being slightly greater than the height dimension of said compact disk case with said pairs of parallel ribs maintaining said compact disk case mutually perpendicular to said first and second disk members.
