Plenty of non-digibook releases outside of North America, why Iceland specifically?

I'm well aware of that already. I stay away from Uk imports, the rating logo looks so nasty it destroys all releases imo.

I can definitely sympathize with that.

The coverart is really important to me, which is any UK covers is a big no-no on my shelf. However, there is a better way than searching through the world for an official release where the cover is up to scratch:

Custom covers.

In addition to the thread on this forum, there are tons of websites devoted to just that. With a decent printer and proper paper, it'll look every bit as good as an official cover as far as paper and print is concerned, and better by far artistically. Problem solved.

yes custom covers are great, except the disc will still have the logo

1.) Buy the US digibook
2.) Take disc out of digibook.
3.) Throw out digibook
4.) Get spare case
5.) Print custom cover (or commission one) and insert into case
5.) Put disc in case

Was this really that hard for you to figure out?

Most custom covers, at least the ones from professional sites, also come with custom labels, to be glued directly on the disc.

Then you are left with matching cover and disc, English characters, and no rating symbols. Best option I can think of. Take it or leave it.
