Most of the cases I've seen (and that would be hundreds) used for porn DVDs have hubs made up of four high-pressure prongs. The stress caused by these prongs may ultimately cause the two polycarbonate layers to separate, leading to "DVD rot." I came across one such instance recently, which resulted in no playback at all from the disc. Aside from creating stress on the disc, the hub's sharp edges also have the potential to damage the DVD as it is being attached or released. The attached disc should be able to rotate freely; it shouldn't be rigid. I'd be willing to pay extra for a decent case, like the Amaray cases many mainstream movie studios use.

The minute I get a DVD, I take the DVD out and store it into a binder with sleeves made specifically for that purpose. The box wrapper/cover gets placed into a different binder that I've created for storage as well...most DVD covers will fit nicely into a standard 8.5x11 clear 3-ring sleeve. My entire collection of DVD's resides this way.
The empty DVD cases go into recycling. They are useless to me.

Thanks. I didn't see the Amarays there. But they are available here:
www.sleevetown.com/dvd-case.shtml
10 for $6.95; 30 for $16.80; 50 for $27; 100 for $49
One thing I like about the Amarays is that they have very smooth push buttons. I once received in the mail a DVD that was loose inside a cracked case. When I opened it, there wasn't the slightest nick or scratch on the playback side of the disc. The case was an Amaray.
It would be nice if porn companies used the Amarays, or at least good-quality DVD cases. It would save the consumer money and time.

I like your method--saves a lot of space! Though I prefer to keep the DVDs on shelves for easy access.

I do the same thing as LubeNLuv for the cover inserts. But for the actual discs themselves, I prefer to store them in a [ invalid url ].
By far, that's the easiest access methodology.
