Recently digitalized bunch of DVDs and BluRays. This one is a hell of a CD holder. Feels like trying to play tug of war with a dog.

Aren't they designed, so you push the middle down to release?

    Typicals, yes. This one is a little different. It has a thick plastic cylinder in the middle and tabs on the sides.

    I'm just impressed all the tabs haven't snapped off yet

    I was born back when a medium older than this was still in use, but I still had to come here for ZeroGravitas's reply, because all I saw was this circular bit and maybe (but probably not) the rim of a microwave glass plate. I wouldn't have known it's a DVD case otherwise.

    UPDATE: Aaaaaand I just saw the post's description. Obviously it's obvious now.

    Then I will expose it further by saying it looks like a DVD case, but I didn't think people still cared about those in 2026. So I had to ask.

    LE: and now I saw the accompanying text and I feel like an idiot. Thanks a lot, Voyager, I guess :/

    Physical media has actually started taking off again, what with people growing fed up of paying to subscribe to multiple streaming services, sometimes paying to "buy" a digital movie, only to find none of it available anymore.

    I turn my head to face my shelf with hundreds of DVD's and Blu-rays.

    I think they keep making Blu Ray cases worse to force you to streaming. Also, Blu Ray players, seems like the only functional Blu Ray player is a PS5 now.

    The solution is a NAS
