Fun fact: The album cover and cover album are different.
Album cover: or some call it album art, is the front packaging art of a commercially released studio album or other audio recordings. It is also considered a protection sleeve for what is contained inside.
Compact disc: Most well-known by the name CD, a compact disc is a circle digital disk that contains data (stores and plays digital audio recordings).
Digipak: The best way to describe it is that a digipak can be defined as a type of packaging for CDs normally made from cardboard with an internal plastic holder for one or more discs. To be clear, there are typically two types of album covers, digipak and jewel case.
Digipaks are CD sleeves or packaging made of cardboard, while jewel cases are plastic storage cases. Digipaks are widely considered the superior option. They offer more space for artists to display their graphics creatively and vibrantly. This extra "real estate" also allows for the inclusion of lyrics or personal messages, such as thank-you notes. Furthermore, digipak is clearly better for environmental protection.

Located in Hanoi, Yeu Dia Than is where artists’ supporters who live far to the North go when needed. It has a relatively big customer base.
Has the same vibe and theme as Time Record, Dia Than 51 Sai Gon originated as a vinyl store that stocked old music from the 1970s and 80s. Later on, they join the new music industry.
With a very unserious layout, LP Club leaves the impression of a wannabe store, therefore its customers do not vary and tend to be non-existent to the crowd. Nevertheless, those who once tried their services agreed that the digipak they ordered had been handled with care.
The 4-panel digipak is the most popular CD case, having surpassed the jewel case in sales and largely replaced it. It features four printable panels glued together, creating a rigid yet sleek and stylish design. A plastic tray glued in the center can hold up to two discs.
