Amaray-not the best?

I don't know about the rest of you, but I find the Amaray cases lacking in some areas. First off the disc can pop off very easily, and often does(I work at a store that sells DVDs. We have an amazing amount of "shakers" come in). I find that the Alpha case is the most sturdy, and protects the disk best. Never had a "shaker" with one of those, and they keep the disc scratch free. Maybe it's just me. The only way I can see to improve the Alpha is to put a 2nd thumbhole at the bottom, to greatly reduce any stress on the disc(I can remove them with no bending, just took a little work).

I agree with you about the Amaray case having that "shaker" problem, though I've known of only one such occurance happening to a friend. The Alpha case I can live with, but I think there is a case much better than both of these. I don't remember the name, I was in a hurry at the time, but it was a keepcase with the snapper release button. Which I believe to be the snapper's best feature. (Wow I actually said something nice about snappers!) This was a package with 2 or 3 blank cases I saw at Suncoast. Next time I'll pick one up and give'em a try. Anybody else seen this?

The problem I have with Alpha cases is that they are too soft. The locks on them break easily. And I feel like I'm gonna break the disc every time I take it out.

What about a snapper holding mechanism put inside of a amaray case?

But do you really think current dvd providing companies would be that smart, allowing themselves to please their customers by giving them exactly what they want, with out hassle or paying more; Giving us the consumers a great combination case that everyone would love????

NO
