you can peel it off pretty easy. Not that it was my intension to do so, but I had this sticker on the cd (I ^*&#) HATE stickers on cd's!!) and I peeled that one off when some silver-stuff came along. It isn't very noticeable, but it does suck

I'm not too fond of that stuff. I keep putting my fingers on it and leaving marks. I'm always wiping it with my sleeve.

HAHA! There's always something to whine about now is there! LOL

haha yeah, there is...but it's pearljam so it must be perfect

i scratched the silver stuff when i tried to cut open the plastic wrap with my keys.

ouch!

man, slice at the sides, never the front.. the edges have more loose shrink wrap.

This happend to me with Riot Act. I almost wanted to buy a new copy.

dude the mirror thing is awesome, i made my mom look at it like ten times the day I bought. She was not as impressed as I.

I think it's because she doesn't smoke the cheeba.

something I learned from Queer Eye, and one of my old friends's tricks too

the best way to open a CD:

1. run the bottom/side of the jewel case along table edge or similar angled surface (the friction splits it no problem)

2. pull the bottom hinge away ever so carefully, separating the front and back of the jewel case. this will allow you to easily peel each side away from the white tape that runs along the top.

viola. opened in 10 seconds with no residue, scratches, etc. I have broken a couple hinge tabs off doing this, though, so you've been warned

(I realize this doesn't apply to digi-paks. sorry )

My gf was equally unimpressed as she is with most of the things i do.

I don't think that works w/ the cardboard cases, just the standard jewel cases. The cardboard will bend and dent, and the ribs on the plastic case are the secret to the friction.

I showed it to everyone I saw that day.

Me - "Then,.. Now,.. Then,.. Now,.. Then,.. Now,.."

Them - "I get it, I get it!"
