QUID PRO QUO!I prefer to buy dvd cases in person because it is nearly impossible to evaluate the hub design from most website information. Yadobashi Camera in Tokyo is the best because they put out a sample for every case that they have for sale. However, my experience with buying and assessing many dvd cases is that the case material can be a rough guide to how good the hub is. I am not a plastics expert so I will describe these in layman's terms. Crystal clear jewel cases have brittle hubs with the thin cases barely holding on to the disc. I avoid these. Black cases, the most common material used, have a wide range of hub designs. Most of these hubs are badly designed. The hub holds the disc in tightly, but the disc is hard to remove.I have had to throw some black cases away for fear of damaging the disc during removal. Maxell brand cases have poor hub designs. When the item says "frosted clear" the plastic case is always supple and generally the hub design is good; both holding the disc and allowing easy removal.
