I now have two of these and I'm getting ready to order two more. They store 20 DVDs in about the same space as 5 in their plastic cases. Each sleeve has a clear pocket on the front to insert the cover art so it is easy to find the movie your looking for. We take ours with us on trips with our portable DVD player. There is no way that we could fit 20 DVDs in our carry-on bag without this case.

I love these cases, and have a few of them, and will get more. No real complaints with them - sure reduced the amount of shelf space my DVDs required, and allows me to organize by genre. The sleeves are held in a 3-ring binder, so they can be pulled out and re-arranged, too, so if you like to keep your DVDs alphabetically, you can pop a new CD into the stream without having to move every DVD like one would have to with the stupid other caselogic cases that don't have removable pages. The material is strong adn well made. I very much like the leather look and feel of the case, and they look sharp on the shelf. The zippers are strong and well formed, the rivets are good, the binder material is sturdy. These babies will last for a good long time.

My only complaint with this case - and also the 10 DVD holder from caselogic - is that they really don't hold that many without bulging or overpacking. I figure the 20 DVD holder averages about 18 discs, and the 10 holder gets 8 or 9. Figure it this way - I have 8 of these holders. One holder when I bought it was missing 5 sleeves. But even though I started 5 sleeves less I should have, it doesn't matter, becuase after filling all the holders to their capacity, I have about 20 sleeves left over that I can't use, becuase the case holders aren't big enough to hold as many DVDs as they say.

The other caveat is that they have no place in which to put a label to let you know what's inside them. I thought of putting stickers onthem, but realized that open and closing them would eventually force the stickers to come undone, and look ugly. So what I did, and I recommend this to you, is to make small cardstock labels with the contents of the case (I sort mine by genre, so mine say "Action" or "Science fiction", and each genre has it's own color scheme, etc. I did not put the movie names on the labels, cuz one never knows when one will need to move a movie to another case to make room for another, eh?), and then tied some string to them and put the string through the hole in the zipper handle. This system works wonderfully, and if you make really nice cards for them, they look good, too.

For those two reasons, I only give these 4 stars.

Those caveats aside, these are wonderful - the sleeves have room to put the front page or other amterials from the DVD, space for the disc itself (they can even fit 2 DVDs in them, for those double DVD sets like Star Wars). They reduced my shelving needs by about 80%, and for that, it's worth the cost,... And it's way easier to carry 20 DVDs in one package, then 20 plastic DVD containers.

Buy these, get your life in order, and open some space in your house.

CaseLogic has set the standard for media storage, and this continues the tradition. A few tweaks are needed, however. I am certain that I will soon fill the 20 slots. Therefore, it would be helpful to have a clear plastic sleeve on the spine for inserting a title or index to avoid having to open each case in search of a specific disk. The graphics sleeves are small enough that considerable trimming of the original case graphics is needed. Actually, I would prefer that the DVD companies would make their graphics more easily adaptable to the album rather than the other way around.

all what i can say that this dvd album is great and very helpfull,i used to purchase this item every time i visited usa during my vacation,,, and now i keep ordering it overseas to Saudia Arabia where i live.
guys its very nice , you have to try it

Everyone so far is right. This is a great product to store your dvd's. You do have to trim the covers to fit. Beyond that is works perfectly. I have 3 of them. I would recomend this to anyone with a large dvd collection.

If you have a lot of DVDs or CDs these wallets are the way to go. I have over 800 CDs and they were eating up my space. After getting rid of all the jewel cases I can store all of my CDs and DVDs on one book shelf. And since I organized them by theme, it is easy to find what I am looking for. By the way: you can mark the outside of the wallets with a white-out pen. It makes it easy to know what's inside each wallet. For the DVD wallet you will need to do a little trimming for some of the Liner notes. But it is easy to do. Trust me... once you start using these wallets, you'll love 'em. For what you get with these wallets I find the price fair. Even better here on Amazon.com Enjoy

What better way to organize the digital photographs you have burned to CD? I run thumbnails on 5x8 index cards and put them in the front of the sleeve in which each CD is stored. Just listing the filenames takes less space. Now I can find particular subjects or photos without having to slip each CD into the drive or writing all over the CD itself.

I also like it for it's original intent .. to store DVDs compactly.

What's in each album? I use a commercial labeler (i.e. P-Touch) which sticks just fine and helps me organize the various albums.

I love this album! It's so nice to be able to carry my DVD's around without the bulkier cases.

I will say this: I wish it provided better for 2disc sets, and I wish that all the inserts fit into it. The latter is not the fault of CaseLogic, however, and it is rather the responsibility of the studios- COME ON Warner Brothers, GET WITH IT!- to provide inserts that will accomodate the album. At least inserts that are somewhat similar to the rest of the industry's inserts. At least inserts, period. Geez....

Caselogic is my preferred media storage company, and I love their products. This album is no exception, and I highly recommend it to anyone with any kind of DVD collection.

I have just purchased my 5th case logic DVD album. This is the greatest way to store DVD's.

This is a great product, but I wish that It would hold more discs. I know that there is a holder that keeps twice as many discs organized, but it is twice the price.
