CDs bounce better if you drop them
Most likely it'll only break the case, but worst case scenario, even if it smashes into tiny pieces, that's only one album that's lost

Buy ANOTHER HARD DRIVE & BACK UP-- THEY'RE CHEAP ENOUGH NOW.
think about it,Never hunting for CDs again...high tech heaven!.I just stick my external HD into my TV & choose from my thousands of AUDACITY WAV songs.mickthefish.

i prefer to save all my audacity music files to hard drive in WAV format.i can always change them to tinny old mp3 to download to my smart phone if need be.and another thing have you noticed how the volume drops off when the batteries are low on smartphones? why not use the audacity AMPLIFY setting to boost the odd file that's to low? a slight clipping doesn't matter with mp3.PS Steve---hard drive space comes at a premium now.mickthefish.
