Digipak

Digipak's are the most common way of getting music to audiences and fans, in the form of CD. They usually consist of a paper or card displaying an image or picture, and details of the artist/band and song/album name. It also contains a plastic tray able to hold a disc, in which the CD itself fits in. Throughout the years there have been many different styles that are included on the front cover of the digipak, varying from a picture of the artist or band, to a symbolic representation. One of the most iconic album covers ever made is 'Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band' by The Beatles which features a colourful collage of life-sized of famous, significant people (including Marilyn Monroe, Bob Dylan, Oscar Wilde), with the lyrics being printed on the back cover, a rarity on CD designs. The cover regularly features top of polls and list such as 'Greatest Album Cover of All Time', creating another accolade for the music legends.
