Definitely keepcase. I hate snapeprs because they dent so early, as do all of the metal and tin cases. Cardboard is easy to damage as well.

It's the regular black plastic case the most dvds come in.

I prefer digipacks as long as they aren't too flimsy.

I really don't care as long as they are all STANDARDIZED!!! I hate having snappers and other weird packaging crap sticking out.

I like those super thin keep-cases that FOX used in the Futurama Season One release.

Keep case.

For Box Sets, I really like the Futurama and Homicide box sets with the individual slim cases.

Keepcase, but i also like the Super Jewel Case (like the one used for the DVD-A release of Metallica's "black" album).

I like digipacks, like Fight Club and some Vista Series movies. They look neat

Keepcases.

I HATE snappers, and don't much like Digipacks much for the same reason - if the cheap brittle plastic hub snaps, you can't replace the case. Keepcases are really the way to go.

I really like the NextPak thin cases for boxed sets, too. Very classy.

The keepcase is the best form of packaging.
