I hate plastic CD cases, the booklets always get stuck and the cases crack. I much prefer the digipak e.g. the recent Yes Rhino remasters (apart from Going For The One, which strangely reverted to a plastic case).

Which do you prefer?

Oh yeah, I hadn't thought of those. I've got the Beatles Capitol box set which is like that. I've also got Simple Minds "Belfast Child" which is a tiny CD in a tiny case (and needs an adaptor to play on some players).

You mean vinyl replicas?

They're great.

Plastic  

I can be considered a child, does that mean plastic should be taken away from me?

I like the plastic covers and those mini-record sleeve import ones. Digipak is my least favourite- they're too flimsy, but they look really nice.

I have Queen - Jazz and ADatR as little "fake" vinyls, they're Japan imports. Pretty cool ... but unfortunately they don't really fit in my CD shelf.

I only have Gentle Giant's first on mini-LP

I'll probably buy some more soon (maybe the "Dream Theater - Live At The Marquee" mini-LP, japan import)

A friend of mine have King Crimson - Starless & Bible Black on mini-LP
