Mill Creek has been doing this for sometime now. Where they have multi disc sets they have the discs in black envelopes and stored in a keep case.

Is there anyway to do this properly so that the parent  profile can make note of this type of situation. I know some people would likely want to know if the discs are in envelopes before they buy a certain set or not.

If instead of envelopes and these were thinpaks held in a slipcase then it would be no problem,

Right now the only way to note this is that the parent would be a keep case and the children would be envelopes.
Problem here is if a user doesn't download the children, let's say for a tv series, there is no way of knowing how the discs are in the keep case as many would just assume that they are all held in the keep case alone and not in many envelopes.

Yes there are one. It's Millcreek so the disc will be in an enveloppe

Everything I bought release by them use a keepcase for the enveloppe and many enveloppe for the dvd. It's the same when they use a cardboard boxe in place of a keepcase.

I wouldn't just automatically think that... though it does seem that way here lately. I got the—I think it was—Billy the Kid set where it is a regular four disc keep case.

Everything I bought from them in the last two years is like that, but of course it means nothing as I buy only their 12 movies pack (some 50 packs in cardboard box too)

I'm probably one of the few who like this kind of packaging... yes it's cheap but no risk of getting a disc loose in the case

Not entirely true, Pete. BUT it would have to be a local issue at this time using the Tag system. What do I think otherwise? I think it is essentially a mon-issue from the Online point of view. There is only one distributor that I am aware of doing this. Do I consider the use of the envelopes to have any relevancy relative to data...not really. I don't see that it adds anything really useful, nor does its failure to account for it take away anything really useful.
ASSUME NOTHING!!!!!!

Joe Schmo 2 is like that. I thought it was really cheap of them. A proper four-disc keep case would have only cost a few extra cents.
