Can anyone compare contrast the packaging for
CSI DVD Collection for both Region 1 & 2?
I heard Region 1 used the same thin plastic case
ala DEEP SPACE NINE & HOMICIDE ?/...this is cool!
How abt Region 2?

The "book-style" package with the very thin DVD trays all bound along one
edge, wrapped in front/back plastic covers? Yep: the R1 sets are in that
packaging, same as DS9.

I like it, myself: it makes season sets condense down to very little space,
and it's far easier to manage -- when digging out a specific disc, say --
than is a DigiPak holding the same number of discs. (I wish we'd gotten
this style of packaging for the _Alien Quadrilogy_ set, the way R2 did.)

I can't address the R2 _CSI_ packaging, as I've not seen it.

Who cares about the packaging.

The Region 1 Season 1 is a cropped pan and scan version.

CSI was 16:9 from day one.

I refuse to buy ANY of the CSI sets until they correct season 1.

DS9 and HOMICIDE have very different style cases. DS9 has
the "book" style described by Doug. HOMICIDE has each disc
in its own Thinpak case, all together in a slipcase.
