Physical-lizing a digital collection

As part of my cleaning up and organizing files, as mentioned in my previous post, I decided it'd be a good idea to backup the almost 30GB of DRM-free indie games I've purchased over the past few years.

I happened to have on-hand 20 blank DVDs with cases which I picked up on the cheap a few years back but never used (because, grr, I discovered my disc drive couldn't write DVDs after the purchase).

So I popped open Microsoft Word, creates a Slim-DVD case slipcover template, and got busy sorting, organizing and backing everything up to disc.

Here's the result:


Crummy real-world photo.

The backs of some of the cases are even more awesome, showing screenshot of the games.
