I love them for the quality feel, though I probably wouldn't be too happy when the time came to move too many of them.

It's nice, but I don't think I'd want every DVD to come in it.

I voted yes, but I'd like to clarify my response with a "only for the best/my favorite titles."

Yes, but if it's done right... like for The Departed.

I voted no. I think they're kinda cool, but I don't see the point of a steelbook unless it's a two disc set and unfortunately the disc over disc orientation of a steelbook blows.

I'd love it if they were all steelbooks...but not if there was a price increase of any kind.

I agree. I dig the packaging and, in fact, The Departed is my first steelbook. I'd like to see more movies in the steelbook, but not all. I can't imagine a comedy or anything like that. I'd think it works best for dramas or action flicks.

I agree. The Departed is the best one I've seen. I also have Appleseed and Boondock Saints. I would love to see more!

I love the one for The Departed. If they could all be that nice I'd take them for every release for sure.
