I reside in UK and need to replace some standard single disc Blu-ray cases that arrived broken and also have a few spares.
So probably looking for a quantity of 10 or so.

I would like to purchase cases as close to the original ones as possible.
Does anyone know if genuine Amaray cases are the best option in terms of quality?

I know there are a few cases on the market that seem very lightweight and poor quality so I want to avoid those if possible.

Blu Ray packaging in general puts me off. Does it have to be blue and transparent? Are there any solid white or black cases that would fit blue ray paperwork?

Who cares anyway? Most blu ray releases of older material are complete garbage.

Not too bothered about the colour of the case, I'm more concerned about the quality.
As far as I can tell you can get some different colours such as clear cases if blue is not your preference.
For me personally, the colour of the case reminds me not to accidentally put a blu-ray disc into a DVD player which might otherwise happen when you are watching lots of different discs all the same size.

The majority (95%) of Blu-ray releases I own are music titles mainly representing newer titles but also some from the past.
The audio on a few has been poor although this was not the fault of the Blu-ray format and was more to do with the original audio captured and/or a poor mix released on some new concerts.

I see Blu-rays as more of a compliment to my existing music laserdisc collection rather than replacements.
Laserdiscs could never be replaced.

I bought some Amaray cases once and i think they are the same quality as the "original" ones. AFAIK the originals are also produced by Amaray.

Scanavo makes the cases used by the Criterion Collection.
