    I save the boxes that my mail order CDs come in.  I think there
    is a special postage class for "recordings".  Safe?  The Post
    Office safe?  That's what insurance is for.  I have never had
    a mail order CD damaged by the post office.  In the jewel box
    and a proper package they are very sturdy.

    I have received MO CDs with cracked jewel boxes.  The CDs played
    fine, but I had to replace the box.  I like to put them in the MO
    container and that in those padded envelopes that the Post Office
    sells.

    If your DEC location has a VAX 78x still in use, they get the
    distribution on 8" floppies.  I used one of the boxes with 
    baby bubble wrap to send a CD.
