Over the past 6 months I've been going through my old data CDs xferring everything off onto DVDs because DVDs last longer (as long as you keep them protected) and they hold a helluva lot more. My entire mp3 collection went from several 100-CD spindles to about 14 or 15 DVDs (I did ditch a bit of my collection that I just don't listen to anymore). The question then becomes, what do I do with all of these data CDs? Just throw them away?
Well, at the time, I didn't know better, but now I do.
Treehugger.com has [http://www.treehugger.com/files/2005/07/qa_recycling_el.php|blogged] on ways to handle your useless CDs so they don't end up taking up space in a landfill. Check out the link for more.
Sadly, there's no perfect way to get rid of them, but you can be more responsible than just tossing them in the trash.
