Picked up the The Very Best of Jackson Browne, a 2-CD collection that came out today. Nothing wrong with the content, but the packaging might be the cheesiest and flimsiest I've seen for a multi-CD set. First off, it comes in a cardboard foldout, not a jewel case. The carboard foldout opens in three parts. First on the left is the booklet, inside a sleeve. Nothing wrong there. But the two discs are held in place on the other two parts by small round pieces of foam rubber glued to the cardboard. These pieces of foam rubber are barely big enough to fit into the CD hole, and when I opened mine, disc 2 was loose. My 2-year-old could make a better package than this. Even AMG, in their review, made note of the flimsy package.
