Digipak general conventions

General conventions of Digipaks 
What a digipak looks like 
 A digipak should be four or six frames. It is a slim cardboard holder for a CD maybe containing extra bonus footage or DVD, it is more flexible than the plastic dual case which is less eco friendly. Digipaks can denote that the Cd is a special limited edition.
