As you can see there are an even amount of highs and lows to this type of packaging yet it has several points that can be both a high and low of this product. The fact that the product is made from either paperboard or card can be cheaper so manufacture yet may be seen as tacky and unprofessional. The digipak design was one of the first alternatives to the Jewel Case. The jewel case was first released in 1982 and was the original compact disk case. The digipak design is made up of 4 to 8 (or more) panels creating singles, albums or box sets. Typical dimensions for these
4 Panel = 139.5mm x 6mm x 125.5mm
6 panel = 142mm x 8mm x 125.5mm
8 panel = 141.2mm x 22mm x 125.5mm
