Digipaks are typically in a book-style and are made from either paper or strong cardboard, they also consist of one or two plastic trays which are there to hold the CD/DVD. Digipaks are one of the only alternatives to the original and classic jewel cases and although they haven’t taken over jewel cases they are being more frequently used by record companies. Although the digipaks do have negatives they seem to be becoming a lot more popular and act as a bespoke solution.
Pros:
· Eye catching and aesthetically pleasing.
· Shatterproof (unlike jewel cases).
· Cheaper to produce in bulk.
· Good to display graphics.
· Environmentally friendly.
· Easier to accommodate all sorts of needs.
· Very innovative and act as a premium product.
· Offer more visuals and information to be on display.
Cons:
· Prone to tearing or ripping as they are only made of paper.
· The plastic trays or teeth can break.
· More expensive for smaller bands/artists.
· Look old and ragged frequently.
· If anything does happen to break the CDs fall out.
