    It’s neat to see the Fragile in a slimmed down digisleeve. The discs are extremely brittle, however. The left disc shattered into smithereens as I was taking it out of the car stereo. At least we got to listen to it first.

      Getting out the CDs its a hassle, don't bother buying a used copy due to the inevitable scratches. However the printing quality is very nice and the booklet feels hefty and well done. I got a sealed copy so I'm satisfied with my purchase.
