I've noticed too that the disk holders (the center part of the CD case) from the Avex OS CDs are also of poorer quality. Once my CD cases fell off of my shelf after a house near mine exploded and caused my house to shake (long story) All my JPN version CDs were fine while the center spindles that hold the CDs in the OS versions were all broken. Therefore, I had to replace the disk holders in my Memorial address OS CD and DVD, my Ayumix 4+selection AO CD, and another OS CD that I can't quite remember.
