so im assuming that bluray is starting to take the route that dvds eventually took. unfortuanately it's a route that i think is annoying and pointless. the slip cases that come on movies like crank and employee of the month. i just don't see what's the point of them. what do you guys think

The point is so the sides of the plastic don't get slit and the disc does not get stolen. Its an anti-theft feature. It also makes the art 'pop-out' more at the store to possible buyers.

Slip cases don't bother me. What bothers me is the inevitable "different sized case changes" that will eventually occur and will probably be different for every studio.

I personally like 'em. I think they look cool, especially the holographic ones. But then again, I've always been a sucker for package design.

I always enjoy the slipcases and will refuse to buy a used DVD if it does not come with the slipcase (if it ever had one in the first place). I plan on buying Crank JUST for the slipcover...seriously.
