Research into Digipaks

Here you can see a basic Digipak I found on the internet. Digipaks usually have six panels but they can have much more as you can see on the digipak below it has fourteen panels.

Each panel is full of information about the album along with a list of songs and information about each song.

Many digipaks can fit more than one CD.












About Digipaks
Digipaks nowadays are used for singles or special edition CD's. Whereas Jewel Cases are used for albums. Digipak-style cases grew in popularity among record labels and recording artists in the early 2000's. Folk band 'Show of Hands' were one of their first bands to use a digipak, on their 1997 album 'Dark Fields'. Digipaks contain track listings, copyright information and information on the artist. 


Digipaks I found at home

 This is a special edition album which includes a CD and a DVD. The imagery on the digipak is linked to the album title. 'Linkin Park Live in Texas' is the name of this album and the images all over the digipak are blurred pictures of crowds of people that would be at a live performance of Linkin Park.

This is a collaboration of tracks by different artists put together by 'Ministry of Sound' that includes three discs.
