I tried a couple of metal covers, but the thinnest ones always seemed to slowly bend under the pressure of the other books in my bag. Some people used titanium, but I don't have that sort of budget. I went to rigid plastic as a result:

This case works on the same concept as the DVD case, but the plastic is very stiff, and transmits the load along the outside edge. This avoids the potential to torque the reader through the Velcro dots. Since it's clear, you could always put your TCsM artwork on the inside of the cover.
