If you were just to keep your discs in a normal enviroment disc rot should not be a problem at all.

I have CD's I've had since the late 80's, which spent the better part of the 90's in giant CD wallets/books, and I've never had a single one with disc rot. Of course, they are stored indoors. In fact, the only time I've ever even seen disc rot was with a game I bought at Gamestop last year (Which I promptly returned)

Gamestop has been going downhill for years now. The times it was the hottest was during the PlayStation 2 era of gaming, also known as the the 6th console generation in which at that time they sold generation 5 games a well from 2000 till I think 2007

Negative. I used to, I also used to keep my audio cds in one. After a while I noticed my audio cds had wear on the backs and some where the pages had rubbed together had taken the paint/label right off. After inspecting my game discs they too had noticeable wear on the backside but luckily I didn't use that wallet as much as I did my audio cds. So I managed to get by with only having to replace a few game discs rather than half of my 400ct wallet of audio cds.

I swore off of them at that point and encourage others to do the same.

A spammer bumped this topic but I will do a normal reply anyways.

I have some loose discs that I do put in a CD book and some others are on a spindle. I multiple large CD books for holding computer software, one of which is just loose PC games.

Only magazine bundleware. They come in those envelope style paper cover and barely offer any protection to the disc. For normal retail games, I keep them in their own case.
