If I am paying £10 I want a CD jewel cases. THey're on the way out, most artists aren't doing them now.
Dido's CD would have looked fab in it. Emma Bunton is doing the same. They get easily damaged and they don't seem as good quality.... Anyone else?

Why do today, what you can do tomorrow?

Probably something to do with cutting down on the use to plastic.

I’m seeing a lot more albums in HMV using cardboard sleeves. It’s better for the environment and I imagine it’s cheaper to produce too.

Yes I agree. We should get a jewel case. The flimsy cardboard sleeves just aren't strong enough and the disc gets scratched with repeated removal.

Jewel cases are made out of plastic which are really bad for the environment so, as much as I prefer the look of the jewel case, I support the cardboard ones.

Really surprised anyone prefers jewel cases to digipaks 👀
I haven’t bought a CD for years, but always used to hate it when only a jewel case was available. It’s like when you find out an album you really like doesn’t have a gatefold vinyl 💔 |

I've always hated the card board sleeves as they are very hard to keep in top condition

Yeah, CDs in jewel cases will always be better than any other format for me. If it's an environmental issue, I'll gladly cut back on other things to keep my jewel cases.

Are most new releases going to be issued this way? I just ordered a Bananarama re-issue released this year, and it just came in a paper case. Kind of disappointing.
