Customer Reviews of Scotch Slim CD Shades for CDs or DVDs, Assorted Colors, 25-Count Packages (Pack of 4)
Customer Review: Wolff is right but the DiscSavers are nice too and there are other options.
Summary: 5 Stars
My first choice for archiving discs is Case Logic binder storage. Takes way less space than boxes. I would not trust most sleeves for long term storage, but the Case Logic sleeves seem well designed, holding the plastic away from the disc with a textured lining.
Case Logic binders come with 1 disc/page, 2/page and 4/page, either non-removable or the removable 'Prosleeves'. The 4/page size enables fast searching of large collections, and there seems not much point for such large pages to be 'removable'. I use this for HBO movies etc. The 1/page and 2/page is where 'removables' make sense. This fits into a file cabinet, yet enables holding large collections, and also allows the occasional removal of just those sleeves that you need. I use this for computer program archiving.
For times when you need individual cases, then these Scotch Shades have these benefits:
--Thin as the thinnest and stronger than the strongest. They and the DiscSavers are both 'rubbery' so they don't tend to shatter the first time you drop them, nor the hundredth time.
--Allows for paper document inserts, unlike DiscSavers.
--According to Wolff the Scotch Shades clasps last better. (However in my experience the DiscSaver lasts well enough.)
The Discsavers are just as thin, just as strong, and have the following advantages.
--Clear plastic cases are better looking and easier to read the label through.
--Nifty center button to pop the case open. Definitely pleasant for discs that you handle frequently.
--Scotch Slimshade colors are ugly and annoying.

Avoid semi-rigid plastic sleeves. Everything in that category seems to have problems. One such plastic envelope is by a major manufacturer but if you read the reviews, can leave a film that destroys the disc.
Avoid those 'clamshell' shaped cases. Very similar in materials to DiscSavers, but the round shape is not practical for stacking or standing on a shelf.
P.S. NOVEMBER 2010. I still like DiscSavers but after shipping they are not cheap. So for single discs, I just use Caselogic PSR-100 Double Sided ProSleeve II Pages. Each sleeve can hold 1 or 2 discs, is very space efficient, and by itself gives adequate short term protection. For long term protection, just place any number of sleeves in a single envelope, drawer, box or binder.
