Console branding - opinions?

I used to care more that they changed the spine logos, but really it's not that bad. PS3 -> PS3 (new font) -> PS3 (Blue background) - While pesky, they didn't change the LAYOUT of the spines, which would have been FAR worse..
GREATEST HITS / PLAYERS CHOICE / ETC.. is my biggest pet peeve. Please stop this, or let me flip the cover to the original or SOMETHING. It's like they are saying "Wow! Everyone LOVED this awesome game! It deserves to STAND OUT FROM THE REST OF YOUR COLLECTION... "

I always thought of it as more of a punishment for not buying the game when it first came out. :P

The worst are the platinum hits combo packs. I'm a sucker for compilation games, but there are a few that came out for 360 with the platinum hits label. I still prefer to have the compilation games so my collection is tainted.
In spite of this, I just bought a regular copy of Left for Dead 2 at Gamestop and returned my platinum hits version. Ocd gets fired up over it

I'm not as picky with Platinum Hits / Greatest Hits games. If I want my collection to look really uniform, I usually just print out a regular retail cover.
That being said, I'll hunt down the black-label / white-label before I get Hits versions.

I've gotten to the point in my collection where I've separated my GH games from my black labels. The GH games don't look that bad when they are all together, and the black label games look great that way as well. I need to get some pictures up.
