I can attest that bad cardboard sleeve designs DO scratch discs. It has happened to me a lot. I get a lot of avant-garde small label recordings, and they often get 'clever' with packaging (an attempt to be 'artsy'), much to the detriment of the CD. I can assure you that the ones who design such abominations are not audiophiles!
CD Cases
Is it just me or is anyone else getting peed off with the card sleeve type of cd case. I had to start replacing discs after 5 months as the case just scratches them getting them in and out. Ive now ordred a bulk pack of super jewel cases, and when never i receive a card sleeve type i rather sadly sit there cutting up the cover to fit the new plastic case.
I have a fear of being mistaken for a 'craft' type...
Honestly though, i'm getting more and more of these poorly packaged discs, i know costs may be lower but hey, they dont protect the disc, they scratch them...
