Each DiscKeeper holds 12 cd booklets and jewel case inserts along with their game. Alhtough not groundbreaking, the games being held on the backside of the booklet holders logically seem to have the benefit of reducing scratching while pulling them in and out of the hidden sleeves. I only reccomended these for long term home storage unless you don't mind the fact that other cd holders smaller than this hold 24+ cd's.

The Good:
*Innovative use of standard storage cases where cd's are tucked in a safe sleeve built into the backside of each booklet holding page.
*Makes storing and organizing games easier and reduces the likelihood of scratches in cases where both the booklet and cd are kept in the same sleeve.
*Each one holds 3 standard memory cards in hard foam in the front. (careful they can fall out a little easy though)
*Net in back for storing miscelaneous small items.(like cheat codes, other booklets, more memory cards, etc.)
*Come with a clip on/off strap for maybe attaching to??? (maybe you have a reason, they must of)
*Unlike the ones being handed out at gaming shows, they front symbol is sowed on not stuck on with cheap glue so they won't fall off so easily (and look so tacky and cheap)

The Bad:
* Not a convenient way to bring your games with you, so you would want to transfer them to a different case whenever you traveled outside your room/living room.
* The five I own which hold a total of 60 games is not a small nor attractive addition to my living room. I keep them out of view just for storing games I rarely play.
* Poor design: By increasing the height minimally thus allowing 2 booklet and game holders per page would have allowed 24 cd's stored using the same innovative storage in a much more efficient amount of space. (I would have only 2 instead of 5 and still have 12 empty pages.)

Summary: If you are looking for storage that will actually protect your disks and don't mind swapping to other holders when traveling these are actually a nice way to store your games at home.

I use these for my ps2/xbox games as well as my dvd collections. They keep my games free of scratches, and they take up a lot less space than the dvd cases would. They're also pretty handy for carting your games/movies around since if you have multiple ones you can just fill one with the discs you'll need and take it with you. The clip on strap is a bit of an enigma, but I put my straps through the hanger rod in my closet and just unclip binders when I need them. I currently have 7, but I'm buying 3 more from amazon right now. Other places have them dramatically cheaper ... Inflated amazon.com price is all that keeps this from a 5 star rating.

I don't know why you're even reading this review. This product as good as any other. CD cases are pretty much all alike: this one holds my CDs without scratching them, and keeps them organized. That's it. It accomplishes its job admirably, and for that I bestow upon it the coveted 5-star rating. Now go forth, my friend, and revel in the fact that you can now worry about other things.

Ok. I just HAVE to get one of these. I got games that have no case and they are being scratched up BADLY. Including my favorite, Suikoden. I don't have many games so if they don't work, I might start to feel like a big, brown, cup full of (I'll leave this word out for now). :)
