We use clear DVD cases from Video Shopper

They crack sometimes, but you can't control how patrons will treat them.
Whatever brand you buy and whomever you buy them from, get clear
cases. Much easier for staff (and the patron) to see what is - or
isn't - inside.

Many of our DVD cases are in sad shape. They are cracked, will not
open or close properly and in many cases the hub no longer works and
so the DVD is loose in the case. I am willing to spend money on top
quality cases that will actually last. These ones from Gaylord
looked better than average but I thought I would poll this list and
see if there is a gold standard for cases other than the cheap ones
most distributors use. Matthew

encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the
selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control,
preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in
libraries and related institutions. It is hoped that the list will
serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as
a channel of communication between libraries,educational
institutions, and video producers and distributors.
