If any of the list members haven't seen them, they are half the thickness of a regular jewel case. Two will fit in a slot designed for one jewel case. They are excellent for storing backup audio CD's that you use in your car or data CD's that are not used on a regular basis. I keep all my reinstall CD's (Windoze, drivers, MB, etc.) in a bunch rubber banded together. Most of them came in sleeves anyhow. To ask for spine labels is kind of like asking a 500 MHz Celeron to match the performance of a P3 1Gig. You might be able to modify a rear label (using one spine label) by using 6 or 7 point type, but the distortion of the bend in the plastic case, coupled with the small type would make it almost unreadable. A stick on label on the outside would be so narrow that normal handling would quickly damage them. They are useful, but if you need something that you can quickly pull out of a stack, they are worthless. If you decide to chuck them, chuck 'em my way. I think they'll start turning up as original program storage, replacing sleeves before long.
