I've had just as many coil spiral bindings break on me over
the years as I've had comb bindings break. I bind many of
the scores I print up for my own use in my community band
director's job with comb bindings, and they have lasted just
fine.
And I've never had a problem with noisy page turns while
using a score I've comb-bound myself.

Are you talking about plastic coils or metal coils? I've been
using plastic
coils for years and have a hard time even imagining one breaking,
short of
using wire cutters on it.
I'm the same as you. I'm starting to think there might be regional
quality issues involved here. My coils are tough like nylon, and the
local combs get stiff and crack quickly, but Andrew's big fat comb
binding on his book is pretty good still, and David reports breakage
with coils.
