cd wrapping

[urowndisaster52]

what do you prefer?

[maledixtion]

what?

[urowndisaster52]

the cd case, do you prefer the plastic or the cardboard? i like the plastic

[maledixtion]

what do you prefer?
my finger on the trigger

[irthesteve]

odd poll, but i tend to get more excited with the cardboard as opposed to plastic case... i get dissappointed when its plastic with a dumb covering thing that it slides out of

[urowndisaster52]

my finger on the trigger
me face down across the floor

[maledixtion]

Jewel case.

Digipaks often don't come with an insert. They also cannot be replaced if they get stained or marked.

[IcedOpethBlind]

digipaks. i break plastic cases too easily. :\

well just as long as this things loaded

[hobotodd311]

jewelcases. a lot of those paper ones won't fit in my damn cd rack.

[FinchBulldog2]

I like to eat retarded children.

[punklet2101]

I'll say cardboard, just 'cause it's different I guess, and I break the plastic ones all the time.

[maledixtion]

well just as long as this things loaded
and will you tell all your friends?

[Signals Corrupted]

im indifferent

[jaimej]

and will you tell all your friends?
youve got your gun to my head

[gmc14]

me face down across the floor
i thought it was "your floor", whatever

[gmc14]

and there's supposed to be 2 "down"s

[gmc14]

oh, on the subject of cd cases tho, I guess the classic plastic, but I don't keep cds intheir cases anyway so I doesn't matter too much

[apoemtothedead]

youve got your gun to my head

if only you knew half as much as you pretend to...crap.

[theESCO]

youve got your gun to my head

This all was only wishful thinkin

[apoemtothedead]

This all was only wishful thinkin

[Tanooki Suit]

I prefer jewel cases so I can slide the booklet in front of the cd to protect the top of it in my giant cd books.

[FinchBulldog2]

I like the cardboard fold...It doesn't crack or get fucked up.

[Tyler Revolution]

I hate how most of the digipacks don't come with booklets. That's part of the reason I buy cds, and I hate when I don't get my booklets!

[maledixtion]

amen!!!

[sunrisehighway]

I hate the cardboard, its not replaceable if it wears, which it eventually does. I break the plastic ones all the time too, but then I go and buy a new one for like a nickel and i have a brand new case. It also drives me crazy when the cardboard ones don't come with a booklet.

[Speyside]

I like the cardboard ones, but I share the same concerns that everyone else has already stated, same with jewel cases. I keep all of my CD's in a road case used for protecting amplifiers though, so I don't necessarily care that digipacks don't really fit into most racks.

[urowndisaster52]

i thought it was "your floor", whatever
i know how it goes. i was paraphrasing.

[trustmeimokay]

I hate the cardboard cause they won't fit into my CD holder thingy. Especially "Resignation" by Rx Bandits. It's so damn big!

[punkpixie]

Thats the worst digipack I own because it won't fit anywhere-you read my mind again!

As for the question, I don't really mind...

[Hilikus]

Cardboard owns. It doesnt break and shatter like the jewel cases.

[Andy]

Im a cardboard man myself.

[trustmeimokay]

Hmmm....strange.....

[Chemical Love]

i like cardboard, just because its something different.

[Andy]

The Bronx' cardboard release is fucking art.

[Speyside]

To me, there's something about the cardboard that seems more personal, or "artsy" maybe.

[aminorthreat55]

6-panel digipack is the best

[Bishop]

Cardboard owns.

[SkaBum14]

Cardboard. They look cooler and the plastic jewel cases always end up breaking.

[aminorthreat55]

6-panel digipack is the best
Now that I've said this, I don't think anyone knows what it is. It's essentially cardboard, but has the glued in plastic holder for the cd. They don't have to be 6-panel, in fact a lot of them are 4-panel. You'd know what it was if you saw it.

[Tanooki Suit]

What the fuck is a digipack? Just say "cardboard" if it's cardboard... the only designation that even matters is "gatefold".

[dumbcorey]

jewelcases. a lot of those paper ones won't fit in my damn cd rack.

that, plus the damned things like the fall out boy cd, are so folded already, they tend to fold so much and rip :(

[BrandNew20]

I like the classic jewel case.

[Drew Beringer]

I could care less, I just like buying the cd.

[KarolaBloch]

i don't mind cardboard... but it has to have a booklet with it. i hate when its just cardboard its bullshit!

[aminorthreat55]

It's like this glossed heavy paper compound, sort of like cardboard except it's white and not as stiff. And then it has the plastic thing for the disc.

[smallbutfeisty]

i hate the cardboard cases...they're too flimsy, and the artwork on the front always gets all scratched up.

[sweethypocrisy]

i like when its both. IE "pollyanna" and 'in keeping secrets of silent earth"

[FinchBulldog2]

i like when its both. IE "pollyanna" and 'in keeping secrets of silent earth"
Its weird on Pollyanna tho....One thing calls the song Two Zero Zero and the other Two Zero Two

i never noticed, now i must make a thread.

And Thursday-Full Collapse special edition ;)
special edition?!

dammit!

[aminorthreat55]

special edition?!

dammit!
Yeah. I don't know if its still out. It isn't much different. It's just one of those blue cardboard sleeves with the bird logo on the front and it has desktop backgrounds and music videos and thats about it.

[FinchBulldog2]

Yeah. I don't know if its still out. It isn't much different. It's just one of those blue cardboard sleeves with the bird logo on the front and it has desktop backgrounds and music videos and thats about it.
I might look for that.

[aminorthreat55]

I think its out of print. I got it off of Interpunk.com two or three years ago. I just looked for it on there and didn't find it. It's nothing special.

[Louise Heng]

i like jewelcases. my second favourite part of buying a cd (other than the cd itself) is the booklet. the motion city soundtrack cd has a really nice booklet. plus, they make good book ends or mini-tables when you stack empty jewelcases together.

[Paul Tao]

i still can't stand the stupid sticker security things that keep it shut. i know they're necessary but it takes me forever to get them off.

[Greg]

ive mastered the art of taking those off.... i can open 2 CDs fully before my one friend even has one open.

[sweethypocrisy]

mine has all that just no cardboard sleeve.

the cross out the eyes video is sweet.

[VeloriumCamper]

well most of my CD's dont come in any packaging..

limbeck have the coolest booklet ive ever seen

[irthesteve]

i hate when people open their cds and leave some of the plastic thing at the top of the cd.... it pisses me off when they dont take the time to take it fully off

[maledixtion]

ameteur. here's how it's done: unhinge the front from the bottom, then swing it up and peel it off in one motion. it's fast and doesn't leave pieces of the plastic left.
