Default Is it better to get signature on paper sleeve or steelbook?

I'll have the chance on getting it on any of them, but on your experience, which one lasts longer. Paper seems more fragile but I think the ink could disappear from the metal more easily.

If you use a good permanent marker and protect the steelbook I think it would last a good long time

And i would much prefer a signed steelbook to a slipcase personally

Paper is easier to protect and frame

Steel books are more valuable

What if it's a steelbook and then covered by that hard plastic cover some CEs have? When it is dry, it's probably better no? I just don't want the signature ink messed up

you could just take the steelbook to a place like HMV and pay the $2 to have it shrinkwrapped (if they still do it)
