Source for high quality jewel cases

@stuartk yes, hate those.  I really like the MINI LPs from Japan.

Yeah -- I've run into a few but pretty infrequently.

I'm not a fan of the cardboard digipaks, where more often than not, the CD is shoved into the slot with no protective sleeve. Simply removing them risks scratching the disc -- a really stupid design, IMHO!  So I put them into standard jewel cases and cut up the digipaks into appropriately sized/proportioned sections  to duplicate the usual jewel case inserts. Especially with out of print CDs, the last thing I want to do is risk scratching them every time I take one out to play it. I do not understand the "logic" of the digipak. 

I have some that the center post just wont give and the discs bend.

I've had issues with the lift mechanism loosening and falling out of the case. Maybe I've just been unlucky. I don't see why there would be stress exerted on discs unless the center post is too tight. Some other reason I don't know about? 

Years ago I bought a load of Lift Lock cases like the ones used by MFSL for their gold cds.  Very sturdy and do not stress bend the discs
