What is a digipack?
“The content of a digipak is exactly the same as in usual CD covers, it is just getting dimensions and folds correct. They can fold in a variety of different ways. The most simple ones are a piece of card which measures 57cm x 12.5cm. The 57cm is for 4 panels of 14cm each and a spine. The two outside panels fold to the centre and are stuck down making a kind of greetings card effect. Others have pockets for booklets, or have two spines and fold in twice. All need to have space to put the CD/DVD, either in a pocket, or more usually in plastic press in panel - like in a normal CD case.”
· Digipacks are a type of CD packaging made out of card stock or other heavy paper/cardboard material.
· Digipacks can flip open like a book, or it can have three parts, so that one portion of the packaging opens to the right and one to the left, with the CD in the center portion.
· Usually, the portion of the digipack that hold the CD is made of plastic like a traditional jewel case CD - the plastic part is simply attached to the paper background.
