My technique is wrong perhaps

1117462 2010-07-10 02:34:00 Haha Cicero. anyway, yeah some DVD's are a right pain. others are fine. ive found to get the "technique" right you actually have to push the button down through the back of the case a bit. dont put it on a table, hold the case but the edges and push that button down. shoulf be able to get it out fine.

In my view I think they forgot to take away the plastic in the little "dents" around the edges of the disk tray/case. otherwise why are they there?

1117463 2010-07-10 06:53:00 I hate it when the whole disc has to flex to be pulled outta those things.

When I got my first copy of Oblivion I cracked the disc before I even had a chance to install it ):

1117465 2010-07-10 08:07:00 it is extremly hard to get the dvds out of my Happy Days Season box sets. they have a funny centre which aint a button. in fact im getting one out now to watch goodiesguy (15316)
1117466 2010-07-10 21:33:00 Yeah, I struggle badly with some. I got the complete boxed set of Married With Children, and the 'buttons' vary from on season to the next, and on some it's a real thumb crushing / disc twisting ordeal to release the darned disc.

While also on this subject... am I the only one to struggle with can openers? We've got 4 in the house ranging from cheap metal thing through to electric... and none of them will hang onto the rim and maintain traction. Almost get to the point of chucking each can out the window in frustration... if it wasn't for the fact I'd be the one picking up the mess afterwards.

It was around about 50 years between the invention of the can to the invention of the can opener, Before then they used axes, stones, small children, whatever!! I hate some Can openers and I hate the way the good ones can cost as much as $40. So I live by the good ole opener I won in a xmas Cracker
