Want some more CD's? I have stacks of the ones that come glued to 
magazines and as soon as my 80-disk storage box gets filled, I throw 
the oldest ones out. Why on earth would you keep that old stuff??

Anyhow, SpringCleaner has a "find duplicates" button, but I never found 
it to be too useful. It creates a loooong list that would take you 
weeks to wade through, since you still need to go and compare the files 
it finds to see if they really are duplicates.

I'd recommend leaving the CD's where they are and run them all through 
DiskTracker.
Just my 2 cents.
