WHAT ON GOD'S GREAT EARTH ARE Y'ALL USING TO KEEP THAT DAMNED FLAP DOWN!!!!!!!!!

HOW ANNOYING IS THAT DAMN PACKAGING!

WHAT ARE YOU USING TO KEEP THE FLAP DOWN? I DON'T WANNA TAPE IT.

I LIKE THE BOOKLET ( HOWEVER FLAWED IT MAY BE )

HE SHOULD'VE DONE SOMETHING LIKE THE NEWS CD WERE IT CAN CLOSE.

I don't know what the hell is wrong with whoever designed that shit. Then they just threw the songbook in there...nothing to hold it inside, no slip...nothing. So I'm trying to figure out how I can keep the damn songbook from falling out of the sleeve that won't stay closed! WTF???? pissed

Lately he's been making some messed up cd's for us to try to keep in our collection.

The hockey puck holding Crystal Ball.
1999 The New Master which is too big to fit in cd holders.
NEWS with the stupid design which forces you to bend the corners to shut it.
and finally a cd with a booklet that falls out everytime you pick it up.

I know, it's not like this is the first time that the packaging has been, uh...inconvenient. I'm starting to think that Prince has different copies made for himself..b/c I don't see him unfolding every one of those flaps every time he wants to hear NEWS.

I don't understand why someone somewhere along the line didn't say, "Hey! How is that booklet going to stay in there? And what kind of cardboard are you going to use? Make sure the flap closes and doesn't just open up 3/4 of the way when you set it down.

Yeah, it's just a CD case....and Musicology is just an album.....and Prince is just a musician. wink

Personally, I've got it standing up like it's on display, with Crystal Ball keeping itclosed enough that it doesn't fall down.

But if the next CD has some messed up packaging, I'm REALLY out of space for these things.

Hey everybody, I don't know about everywhere else, but in Australia, there's a sticker on the front that says "School's in Session...", etc and I use that to stick it down. Works a treat! I suggest putting it towards the bottom and putting half the sticker on the flap and the other half on the case....no worries!
