Half a year later...4
Well, I bought this CD book this past August, despite reading quite a few negative reviews. I own a lot of CD's (more than can fit in this book) and needed a place to store the majority of them. This case has many great aspects to it and many flaws. I will go through the pros and cons of it, in case you need a general idea of what you are buying.

PROS:

- Affordable
- Lots of space
- Sleeves don't get "white streaking" that other cases got
- Sleeves don't rip
- Material does not scratch CD's AT ALL (that's a first)

CONS:

- Handle is useless; if book is full and you lift it by the handle, it will probbably fall off
- When full, the CD book will not open all the way
- Lining on the inside has recently started to come undone
- CD's in front & back can be difficult to get out at times

Overall, this isn't a bad buy. It depends on what you need it for. I myself bought it because my CD's are never on the go. I never keep all of my CD's in my car, because if I had all of my CD's stolen, I would be devastated. I honestly can't recommend this for traveling purposes. It is extremely bulky (which is expected) and you can tell it's not meant to be moved much. However, the one thing that I love is that the fabric does not scratch any of my CD's. I can't tell you how many CD's I have that are all scratched up from other cases. All of my CD's that I have bought since August that are put in here are without a scratch. Conclusion: Buy it, but keep it home. Afterall, who needs to carry 320 CD's with them?

Too much of a good thing4
Prior to buying the Fellowes 320-disc case, I also owned a Caselogic 264-disc case. The Fellowes appealed to me because it was cheaper and held more. The case is ok for the price, but here are my two main complaints:

First, after filling the case to capacity with 320 discs, I found it incredibly difficult to zip up the case. It was so cumbersome, I opted not to zip it up which leads to my second complaint...when I picked up the unzipped case by the handle (which I do with my Caselogic all the time), the entire binder fell out onto the floor. This has happened so many times that I now just have the binder out by itself without the zipper case.

I'm getting ready to buy another case and this time around, I'll go back to the Caselogic-264.

Moderately useful2
When I got my Fellowes 320 CD case in the mail, I was very pleased. I spent an hour loading all of my CD's into it. I showed it off to my friends, all of whom admired the stylish look and professional features. That is, until the stitching holding the handle on came loose two days later, leaving the handle attached at only one end. To top that off, a day after that, the zipper's stitching came loose as well, meaning that not only was I left with a CD case that I couldn't pick up easily, but now it couldn't close either. How utterly delightful.
