Several years ago, I listed my house for sale, and I had a shelf in my living room near the TV with my DVDs and blu-ray discs on it, and there was a real estate agent who looked at it and said the DVD shelf was an eyesore..  To each their own - I didn't really think of that being an eyesore, as I thought it was fairly normal to have your movies near the TV for when you want to watch them.

Yeah, I've seen those disc booklets, and I'm not a big fan of them.  I like to keep the cases for them, along with any booklets or anything else that comes with them, so usually I just keep the discs in their original cases.
