I used to do that also. i actually still have a box full somewhere. I even have some that haven't been cut up like GN'R Use Your Illusion I & 2 (because they had a different PA label than most the other copies).

I also remember that I had a closet next to my stereo set-up at the time, and whenever I'd open a new CD, I'd just throw the empty longbox in there until I needed it. The first time I actually cleaned it out, the were over 200 flattened out longbox cases in there. I then made it an annual event every year, from the time I started buying CD's en mass in 1987, til they stopped making them in longboxes in the early 90's.

Just bought the Fleet Foxes EP and it was in that horrible, makes-me-scream, paper sleeve case.
Useless!
It's going to be scratched within a year and there's no way I'm going to find it among the rest of my discs.
I actually love physical discs, the act of loading one into the player, and reading the booklet.
These new cases are, quite frankly, cheap and distasteful.
