Box side for me as well, except for SG-1 sets and Nightmare on Elm St.

If the movie titles are listed on the box side I'll have that facing out. Otherwise (like the Ultimate Matrix Collection) I'll display the spines.

You're wrong. Spine side is better.

As a whole, the box side. But there are certain exceptions.

Box side


I say let's have the best of both worlds; take the DVDs out of the box and display them spine side out next to the box side. Eh, eh, who's with me?

Box side, except for my Matrix HD-DVD set. I don't know why.

Box side. It looks messy to me with the title side showing.

It depends on the attractiveness of the box - but I generally display the title side.

Box - with one exception: Alias Season 2, which looks much better on the individual spines side.

If the DVDs are in the box, they will take up the same amount of space regardless.

Yeah, but turning them on the other side will still be the same space. We are talking about the side of the box not the cover.
