Am I the only one that hates the clips on the side of some BD/HD cases?

As threads go, this has been one of the more useful ones I have seen lately. My thanks to the OP, Viper187, and those who posted the answer to the question.

I just tried the push out of the way thing on all my releases I got yesterday. While the BD cases from Sony and Disney did this fine, the Uni case from Fletch was not as good. The tab doesn't push down far enough, so the result is the case bulges a little at that side. So away the tab went.

GREAT THREAD!!
I too didn't know those clips can pushed down inside
You learn something new everyday
I find the Blu's look cooler than the Burgandy hd's but they do stack up very nicely and evenly on my dvd rack except for the Pirate Movies. I left them in their cardboard covers cause they look nicer that way. I'm just anal that way I guess

This warranted a YouTube How-To. Yeah, it's a crude video shot with my digital camera, but you get the idea.

Nice video, thanks! I noticed that there are even tiny clips inside the case to hold down the flap after it's been folded inside. I wonder why there's been no word from the studios or HDM manufacturers about this great feature?
