I don't much care for the air-tite albums either, they are just plain ugly but offer nice protection. I am seriously considering combining the two so that I can have what I want, a truly archival premium coin album. Some sort of hybrid like a Dansco with air-tite holders. And for the really nice sets, leather bound with gold foil.
