Now, I know those fey things multiply like crazy, especially with satyrs around, but there's already three areas reserved for fey, not counting gods know how many layers of abyss infested with them. What I want to know is: how do you like your fey? In arborea, as alternative prime, as another outer plane, as a demiplane or something else?

Looks nice. Altough, I'm more of a goblin fan :D
That's the way I handle it, with the demiplane itself being a half and half thing with both Seelie and Unseelie present between loosely divided regions of perpetual dawn and perpetual dusk.

All of the above.
I like the Seelie and Unseelie Courts as a single body/event, changing randomly from CG treehuggers to CE manhunters through everything in between.
The Court(s) travel from Arborea toward Abyss and back by way of a tranistive plane of sorts, Faerie, which is properly timeless (unlike certain silvery transitive planes that I can think of) and coexistent with the Prime here and there. They used to live on the Prime until they got bored with all the banality, so they imagined Faerie and left for Elsewhere; see Sandman #19 - A Midsummer's Night Dream for more info.
Titania = Queen of Air and Darkness.
Exemplars of Chaos = the Fey, not the Frogs.
Monster Mythology mentions a fey plane called Ladinion, which was destroyed by the same force that corrupted the Queen of Air and Darkness, forcing the fey to "take flight across the planes and abandon their land."
As the Material Plane formed from the mists, some of the fey spirits took an interest in it. They wove themselves into the fabric of the plane as it slowly took on corporeal form - they're older than the Material Plane, and they helped create it.
As magic and the land - perhaps reality itself - became tamed by the passing of eons, the fey slowly lost interest in it and many of them retreated, some back into the hidden lands of the Ethereal and some into the Outer Planes to join the greatest of their kind as they cavorted with the gods.
The demiplanes are places of raw possibility and creation, where reality is still in flux. The realms in the Outer Planes are still wild, fueled by Chaos as they are, but at the same time they're stagnant, their inhabitants reduced to replaying the same roles, tropes, and stories over and over again. To escape this, they must return to the planes of the Deep to rejuvenate themselves - but here, too, they can be permanently destroyed. Those that weary of constant strife flee to the comparative serenity of the Outer Planes, where things continue as they always have for ever and ever the end.
