Very thorough but im surprised you didnt mention the clear Criterion Collection 14mm full cases. I wish those had become the blu-ray case standard for all the releases.

[@OldGuitarMan]

Yes. Those cases have a great look and feel, much better than the usual standard cases.

[@dudemcmann6936]

I hate that the U.S. blu-ray case standard became those really narrow 12mm ones while Europe & Australia had the 14mm wide cases that are width of standard DVD cases. I can read the movie titles better on my shelf with the wider case spines.

Good video. I just wish it wasn't such a pain or treature hunt to find coloured blu-ray cases.

[@bry6080]

I totally agree. I'm always on the hunt for colored blu-ray cases. I haven't found any empty cases except for red. There's the occasional blu-ray that comes in a colored case, but I'm not going to spend $10 just to get the colored case.

[@SilverSamurai12]

@@bry6080 I agree, but I'd be willing to pay $10 for a coloured case. Getting desparate here!

Residue! Tell us about the damned foggy, greasy residue present across the surfaces of almost all blue Blu-ray and black 4K cases. Please. Why is it there now? It didn't used to be there. I have 20-year-old DVD cases without it. Are newer cases manufactured differently or with different plastic that cause this? And why do so few people talk about it - and those that do, why are they inevitably mocked by others on the interwebs? Sounds like a - yes, like a conspiracy. It's a long, laborious process just to fully clean one case inside and out, under the clear plastic where the art insert goes, etc. The greasy, foggy residue is everywhere (like people are everywhere if you go out of your house, like how all our hopes and dreams for this life lie broken everywhere around us) - and it's not simply am aesthetical thing. It's sometimes coated across the disc trays, as well, oftentimes transferring to the data side of discs. Break this conspiracy. Tell us why the residue is present now when it didn't used to be. Advise us on the best methodology towards cleaning this new abomination. I've attempted many methods via personal experimentation (including Brawndo because it contains electrolytes), but right now am just using a dry microfiber cloth to scrub the alien DNA from the cases. Notably, my fingers become slabs of greasy sausages during and after a bout of case cleaning - and I think they're beginning to change, to mutate into some as-yet-unknown new form of appendage.

I Made A Video About Greasy Blu-Ray Cases, It is because they are Polypropylene where DVD cases were Polystyrene. Yes the black 4K cases seem to be the worst but all cases suffer from it, standard blue, clear, orange audiobook cases, etc... kzbin.info/www/bejne/aGjXi6SYi9-Xb68
