As someone who routinley used ammo cases (metal ones- Vietnam era-->late 80's + 90's) for storage of tools, parts, and other vehicle related stuff I've seen a lot of them. Many ammo cases still have a light film of a waxy substance inside (along the corners especially). This waxy film traps water easily (rusty tools...eventual CD degredation). I suspect it can also harbor bacteria, mold, etc.... Not ideal for long term CD/DVD/DAT storage. If you still like ammo cases, check out the *newer* cases for 50 cal. and AR-15 ammo. These are made of a a tough plastic material. And withstand abuse much better.And no waxy film. As a bonus they stack *much* better.....
