Media storage container with media cartridge page

Abstract

A media storage container includes a base that supports a media disc retaining hub configured to hold a media disc such as a CD or DVD. A lid is connected to the base and movable between open and closed positions. The container is configured to hold a second item of recorded media that interacts with the retaining hub when the lid is closed. In one configuration, an add-on page carries the second item of recorded media. The page defines an opening and a portion of the disc retaining hub extends into the opening when the page is disposed over the base.
