Seriously, if you're in a record company and worried about increased downloading, illegal or otherwise, why on earth would you wanna make listening to music even more difficult by wrapping a piece of cardboard around the CD that cannot be removed by any other means than brute force, as is the case with the packaging of the delightful-though-not-terrible-different-form-the-EP-that-was-leaked-last-year-even-if-I-wish-they'd-kept-that-song-"Ladies of Cambridge-which-is-ace new record from Vampire Weekend. (And if you're able to read Norwegian, let me point you to this write-up of the album from Platekompaniet's on-line shop, which is a much better take on the album than any other review I've read so far in the Norwegian press).
