The definition of a Digipak is:
"Digipaks typically consist of a gatefold (book-style) paperboard or card stock outer binding, with one or more plastic trays capable of holding a CD or DVD attached to the inside."
It is a relatively new design in packaging for CDs, as it can contain extras from the band/ artist such as posters, DVD footage, and added band information. Digipak is a registered trademark of AGI, who developed the design.
They are usually made out of strong cardboard, which is both economical and more efficient than plastic CD cases; it is easier and cheaper to create a Digipack, and plastic jewel cases tend to crack and can ruin the CD inside.
