Abstract
A CD holder to hold multiple compact disks basically consists of a first housing (10) and a second housing (20) pivotally connected to the first housing (10). The second housing has multiple slots (25) to arrange the CDs inside and a selecting device (30) secured between the first housing (10) and the second housing (20) to pick up a selected CD. The selecting device (30) is comprised of a shaft (31) and a roller (34) mounted around the shaft (31), wherein the roller (34) has multiple resilient blocks (36) mounted on the periphery to contact the corresponding CD. The first housing (10) is able to clamp the selected CD when the roller (34) rotates to the corresponding position.
