Abstract
A DVD case (1) is of integral one-part moulded plastics construction. A retainer (15) has two opposed retainer parts (32) having lips (33) for engagement of a DVD at opposed sides of its central aperture. The DVD is released by the parts (32) being moved closer together. However there is no need for the user to press them directly. He or she simply presses a push-button (20) at the edge of the seat, causing the parts (32) to move together in a simple action caused by an integrally moulded release mechanism (16, 17).
