Hopefully easier to settle than the slipcase/slipcover question.



This one is currently described as Digipak, which I am pretty sure is wrong.
To me this is a Keep Case. The number of discs is unimportant.
Am I right, or is there another description for this type of multidisc cases?

I agree, it is a Keep Case. It is NOT not a Digipak.

Keep case, no matter how thick it is.

A digipak is where the plastic that holds the disc(s) is glued to a paper back part.

Yep. A large Keep Case, but still a Keep Case.

Could it have originally been a digipack though?

While we're clarifying this, then; what's a clamshell?

Are you sure this wasn't originally released in a digipak?

Like the following video. Thin plastic, like some of the old VHS packaging.

In Profiler-land, this would be a typical clamshell:


Meanwhile, in the "real world", people would probably think of something like this:

Yes and no. I am reasonably sure that it wasn't released as just a Digipak. However, seeing how old the current profile is, I can well imagine that it might have been originally released as a Digipak with Slipcase. So I'm not contributing a change of case type.

I would consider that to be a Digipak.

This is a Digipak? All Universal Legacy Collection DVD boxes are listed as Clamshell, so apparently not everybody agrees with that,

Yes, that is a Digipak, but I think the issue is that this site has tried to redefine case types that have already been defined by the industry.
