Some nice people here explained to me yesterday that TDK made a few models of 
cases to hold CDS with a speaker built into the case.  I got the cheapest one 
from Amazon.  It holds 12 CDs, but since I don't want it for this, it's fine.  
I wanted the case that held the least, so it would be vairly small, and the 
speaker is MONO.  some of the larger cases do have stereo speakers.
