Storing your media under the proper conditions will reduce deterioration of your items. All of your media should be stored in a clean, cool, dark environment. Avoid heat, humidity and light as these will deteriorate your media formats a lot quicker and will make them unviewable.

Great Places in your home to Store your Media:
Closets are low in humidity, have stable temperature, and have virtually no light. IMG_5186
