A hard cover product having an outer liner attached to a pair of sheet members disposed in spaced-apart relation to define a gap. One of the hard sheet members defines a receiving zone that receives a security tag. An inner liner attaches overlying the pair of hard sheet members and concealing the security tag within the receiving zone. The gap between the pair of sheet members defines a spine for the hard cover product, whereby the opposing hard sheets defining a front cover and back cover that move together foldably. Methods of making a hard cover product and of making an intermediate board for use in a hard cover product are disclosed.

What is claimed is: 1. A hard cover disk container for secured storage and handling of audio or video disk products provided to sales outlets by a disk manufacturer, comprising: an outer liner having an exterior surface that includes graphics images and a coded indicia bar code; a pair of opposing hard sheet members disposed in spaced-apart relation to define a gap and attached to an inner surface of the outer liner, opposing side edges of the respective hard sheet members and the outer liner defining foldable hinging portions thereof; one of the hard sheet members defining a open slot in substantial alignment with the coded indicia bar code on the exterior surface of the outer liner; a security tag received within the slot, the slot of a depth such that the security tag is no more than substantially co-planar relative to a major surface of the one of the hard sheet members receiving the security tag; an inner liner overlying the pair of hard sheet members and concealing the security tag within the slot, the hard sheet members covered by the outer liner and the inner liner define respective front and back covers of a hard cover product, selectively movable on the foldable hinging portions by pivoting the front cover and back cover together to a closed position and pivoting apart to an open position; opposing shells received on the inner liner overlying the respective hard sheet members and selectively matingly enagable upon pivoting the front cover and the back cover together on the foldable hinging portions so as to align the opposing shells together and selectively releasable upon moving the front cover and the back cover apart, at least one of the shells configured for receiving a disc for storage thereon; an audio/video disk removably attached to said one of the shells for storage within the mating shells upon pivoting the front cover and the back cover together; and the gap between the pair of hard sheet members defining a spine for the hard cover product. 2. The hard cover product as recited in claim 1, wherein the security tag is a sheet-like electronic response device. 3. The hard cover product as recited in claim 1, wherein a perimeter portion of the outer liner overlaps and attaches to laterally outward edge portions the pair of sheet members.
