From wikipedia:
A digipak is a compact disc or DVD packaging. It consists of one or more plastic trays contained in a cardboard of various shapes and forms (typically a book cover format). Usually digipak versions of CDs are deluxe versions commonly containing bonus material as opposed to jewel cases that are usually the regular editions. The downside, however, is that digipak editions usually wear off easily as opposed to rather sturdy standard Jewel Case editions. As a consequence, collectors often tend to leave their special edition digipaks in shrinkwrapping and listen to the standard edition or open the digipak once to make a backup of the music CD.

They come in various formats.

i like digipacks..^^..i have...only three i think..T.T BoA's shine on me and Mai Kuraki's Wish you the best...ok. thats two. damn.

Another example of a digipack is the Limited Edition of Ayumi's "H" single (the sides fold out on all four ends and each end has a print of each of the four regular single covers)

I think most Taiwanese artists release those too
Or am I talking about another type of packaging?

I don't like digipaks, but that's just me. The only digipak I have is the giant double digipak for Tommy heavenly6's album...><;
