What Is a Digipak?

 A digipak is a limited edition package for CD's. They replace the typical jewel case in methods of packaging. The digipak was created around the 2000's. The typical digipak will have 6 sides and one or more plastic trays capable of holding a CD. The digipak was the first alternative to jewel cases to be used by most major record companies.
