Conventions of CD covers

I noted down all of the conventions of CD covers so that I would easily be able to establish what I would and should include to fit the expectations of a CD cover.  However, I noted them so I could also challenge these conventions to make my designs unique.

• People
• Band
• Photo
• Art design
• Album name
• Artist name
• Spine has the album name and artist
• The back contains the names of all the songs
• Variety in position of titles
• Size changes
• Photography of others
• Extra stickers for advertising
• Spine contains music company's label
• Extra cover
• Variety of whether the artist or album name is larger (artist name bigger for LTA - not as well known band, therefore they need to promote their name)
• Contains small print of company name
• Info of artist/album story
• Barcode - bottom of album
• Album name shares name with track
• Style of visuals connotes the artist's persona and the genre
