Facts
Charity thrifts sometimes accept commercially made CD/DVDs in their cases. Music stores may only accept music genres with or w/o their case. Call first. Non-commercial CD/DVDs should go to recyclers. Consider donating to a child or an education center that is looking for art project materials.
