A storage container for an item of recorded media includes a centrally disposed hub surrounded by and spaced from an outer wall. The hub includes a pair of resilient arms that cooperate to loosely but securely retain an item of recorded media having a centrally disposed inner hole. The hub includes a first support platform that includes a plurality of raised bumps that essentially frictionlessly support the item of recorded media from below. The outer wall includes a second support platform that also includes a plurality of bumps that supports the item of recorded media from below about its outer periphery. The outer wall also includes a blocking wall that extends above the outer edge to prevent the user from grasping the outer edge of the item of recorded media. The outer wall further contains a finger access hole that extends through the blocking wall that allows the user to grab the edge of the item of recorded media in a selected position that is aligned with the arms of the hub. The arms of the hub are resiliently cantilevered from the first support platform. One arm includes a push button that allows a user to depress the arm and move it out of the way of the item of recorded media as it is being removed from the hub.

1. A storage container for releasably securing an item of recorded media having an outer edge defining an outer diameter and an inner edge defining a centrally disposed inner hole having a hole diameter, the storage container comprising:a base having an upper surface; a hub projecting upward from the upper surface of the base; the hub including a fixed body and at least two upstanding arms, the upstanding arms disposed about the fixed body; each of the upstanding arms having an upper surface; the fixed body having an upper surface; the upper surface of the fixed body being disposed higher above the base than the upper surface of the at least one of the arms; and the hub including a first support platform having an upper surface, the fixed body and the upstanding arms projecting upward from the upper surface of the support platform.
