Does anyone have an album which uses these? I have two albums and a DVD single which use a Super-Jewel case.

They're horrible! They edges are rounded so they don't fit into my CD rack properly (it's on the wall and the CDs stay put because of their corners being a right angle), the booklet is harder to get out since it is held in by 4 tabs (you have to bend the booklet to get it out), you have to press the side in to open the case, the CD is held in with unnecessary tightness and if the case breaks they're not the easiest things to replace (mainly because the artwork is designed for these cases and not standard ones).

Down with them, booo!

Here is an example of one (I don't like her )

You are all being fooled!

Ergonomics and usability over aesthetics, FOOLS!

If it's not broke, don't fix it

Standard Jewel cases are fiiiine. There's no need for pointless crap like press buttons and rounded corners. OCH NOR!
