Hi there,

I was wondering, do people with lots of CD-Rs ever find that the discs are scratched by the material from which CD wallets are made? because, for carrying more than 4 DVD-Rs, it's probably the smallest and most convenient way, and their plastic is probably equally sensitive.

I've already started to see hairline linear scratches on the bottom-most surface of my DVD-Rs. I'm not sure which of my three types of sleeves are actually doing it, but none of them should be. I've variously used, a metal-shelled CD-sleeve binder, a bunch of double-sided UniKeep ProSleeves, and some windowed tyvek sleeves.

Yes. I have 2 Case Logic 128 CD wallets (ordering a 3rd and 4th) filled by DVD+Rs, no scratches.

No, you need a dvd wallet. Same size and same material, but on the label it says "dvd" instead of CD :)
