Digipaks typically consist of a book-style paperboard or card stock outer binding, with one or more plastic trays capable of holding a CD or DVD attached to the inside. It means the CD comes in a cardboard flip-out case rather than a standard plastic hinged case.
Digipak-style packaging is often used for CD singles or special editions of CD albums and the tall DVD Digipak (DVDigipak) is used as a premium package for DVDs and DVD sets.
What is included in a Digipak?
- Photographs / Pictures – usually at least one will be of the artist(s) and another might be of a scene that reflects the mood / genre of the record.
- Track List including song writing credits.
- One box with a Disk impression (perhaps a circle over an innocuous background that shows where the disc will go or alternatively the design on the actual disc).
- A Band/Artist information section (names, instruments, additional musicians, Copyright and year of release etc.)
- Barcode and QR and a Logo for the record company.
- Possibly reference to other albums by the same artist(s).
