If you have all your steelbooks together it looks 100 time better than amarays!

You can't deny that!

You've come to a section dedicated to steelbooks and steelbook fans to talk about how you don't like steelbooks?

Good post.

Maybe he never saw a bunch of steelbooks together but I think he's a troll too. I know we shouldn't be feeding them but sometime I do.

Cheers,
Gui.

Well, I think the answer to the question should be fairly obvious.

Though I have to admit, I'm only an occasional steelbook fan. I'll get them if it's not too much hassle, like I got the steelbooks for Snow White and Pixar's Up.

Anything that's only available from Canada or Europe? Forget it, as far as I'm concerned it isn't worth the hassle and the expense.

Yes, the steelbooks do look pretty, but I'm a utilitarian at heart, so I don't really buy with display in mind. It's a nice thing to hold, but most of the time, the DVD and blu-ray cases aren't something I'm even going to be looking at.

Having said that, I do wish studios here in the U.S. would use them much more often.

Exactly, back when the German IAL was hot, but my collection will get smaller than that soon.
