    Abstract: A modular compact disc case holder includes a mechanism that is manually actuable by a user for ejecting a compact disc case from the holder upon user selection thereof. The compact disc case holder includes a bottom wall having a number of upstanding ribs spaced along a width thereof so as to define a number of compact disc case holding areas. The bottom wall includes in each of the compact disc holding areas a spring and a retaining member for maintaining a compact disc case between the spring and a retaining member when the retaining member is in a first position. The retaining member is movable by a user to a second position for releasing a compact disc case to allow the spring to partially eject the case from the holder so than it may be easily grasped by a user's fingers. The holder also includes first and second side walls each of which is mountable on a respective first and second side of the bottom wall.
