Do cd holder things scratch CDs?

[WNxScythe]

I have one of those big binder like things with hundreds of plastic inserts, and anyways I was wondering if putting CDs in there instead of in their jewel cases scratches the CDs, however minutely (sp?). Does anyone know of a good cd holder that won't scratch the CDs at all?

Long use of them has led me to belive that if you really want scratch free CDs you're better off leaving them in their cases and buying a big rack.

Yeah I generally don't trust them. I have had some CDs that I know I treated that started acting up after being in one of those cases, but then again mine was from a ghetto flea market, so it may not of been the best quality. Either way I only put burn CDs in there now, and keep my real CDs in their cases.

If you take care of them, they probably won't get scratched. Mine sure the hell are not. Get CaseLogic or whatever it's called.

CaseLogic rocks.

i'm under the impression that Jewel Cases and especially digibooks and such scratch cds more, especially when some little piece of broken plastic gets stuck under the disc and you don't realize it, then later you see scratches all over the disc.

Only if the CD's have pentagrams on them

What the heck is wrong with you? :Smug:

That's me... not the sleeves...

If you buy a good one, no.

I find that if you put an inverted cross on the front of the case, the anti-Christian discs usually remain in good shape. I don't know what effects it has on pro-Christian discs, however, so you may want to watch out if you're a dirty Jew worshipper.

 

[Krilons Resa]

Keep them in the cases. Those fucking biinders suck, all of them. They WILL scuff up your cd's.

 

[skeptik]

Not if you're not retarded.

might just put both for a good balance

You make an excellent point.

I've found that putting lone CD's in binders does scratch the albums, but if you put the liner notes in first, it'll deter much of the damage. Of course, then you have that little, circular outline to deal with - on the liner notes - but frankly that doesn't irk me too much.

You know you're never going to live that down, right?

Good one Erik. I've got a nice 128 cd Case Logic binder. I have no problems at all with scratched cds. I tend to be pretty fanatical about taking care of them, though.

 

[skeptik]

I have a 32, a 128, and a 256 CaseLogic, and I have no problem taking cds in and out of their respective slots without damaging them. It's not hard, you just have to focus for a good SECOND on how you're controlling your hands.

 

[RosesofShadow]

It's all about taking good care of it but i much prefer if it's in their respective cd cases. I put my CDRs in binders though cuz i might use them from time to time.

 

[Damnationx]

In my experience, the holders DO seem to scratch my CDs, no matter how careful I am, so I leave them in the jewel cases now.

And fuck, I don't know about you guys, but I HATE digipacks!
