Fun solve, but a few of the clues didn't quite land for me. In 20D I don’t think the clue and entry quite match (the clue might fit CD RACK better). 25A was deducible (especially since short), but same.

20D very much. 25A, it’s substitutable - think “I can’t not do it, it’s in my ____”
Common CDCASE clues seem to be some version of "music/record/media" and "box/holder/keeper/protector/storage place" sometimes with another bit like "obsolescent" or "old" or "1980s".
