Don't forget too, that if you need full color printing, a good approach is to do a 4C slipcase with regular stock, over a fabric wrapped book - like this title did:

Options options besides fabric (or the conventional 4C printed paper) include leatherette types of material and vinyl. This beautiful title uses a leatherette wrap over a chipboard box. Leatherette can't be printed, so good options include debossing or foil stamping, and if desired a 4C bellyband for a splash of color.

On of the considerations for choosing fabric versus paperstock might be your artwork. 4C print is very hard on fabric. Usually we recommend foil or doing a 1C black silkscreen. Stickers have also been done. Here are a few examples:

See Hot Foil Stamping for more examples of printing with foil
You may also want to see metallic ink printing and embossing / debossing

Adding an OBI strip or Belly Band - a color band that wraps around the box

Another option for 4C art is something we can binding cloth. It is less porous than something like linen, and can be printed on, unlike leatherette type materials.

These are examples of 4C Printed Wraps, laminated onto the chipboard.

Hardcover Books have such a strong a sturdy feel to them, and so can your cd books! But what is it exactly that books are made of that is so sturdy? Chipboard! The rigid chipboard core is wrapped with a printed paper and laminated. Book binding is also the same technique used to create the original LP albums back in the day.
