The Gunter Wand Beethoven Symphony set was issued in a cardboard box with cardboard jackets in 2018 as part of Sony's budget-priced Master series.
It was reissued in 2020 in one of those super-fragile 5-CD plastic cases.
According to the first three reviewers on Amazon, the CDs inside were burned-to-order CDRs with glued-on paper labels:

Amazon's listing usually mentions if a CD or DVD is burned-to-order, but not this time.
I took a chance and ordered a box from Amazon in January 2021.
Amazon sent me the plastic box, which I immediately returned unopened.
