The fast majority are in a cabinet out of view. The ones used most often (adult and kids) are in a large case logic DVD/CD binder near the tv.

Been attempting to back up all DVD's on an external hard drive.

Be that as it may, while my son will watch Star Wars movies on continuous loop, I am very much a visual viewer and often need to be inspired by a picture (cover art, disc art) in order to watch something.
