People who want to have lighter stuff that can be easily moved or assembled would prefer a DVD Rack over a cabinet. One can also choose between a rack made of wood or steel. A lot of people would choose steel for many reasons. The primary reason would be that steel lasts longer than wood. One will not worry about bugs or other pests that will eat away the rack. Steel also looks more edgy and modern compared to wood cabinets where some are still of the heavy and stuffy looking design. Lastly, steel racks are easy to assemble; one just has to follow the simple instructions included in the package.
