Ah... back in the day most software, be it games or otherwise, came in a box of some sort. Inside was a hard copy of the vocaloid manual, the CD case and any other extra bits of advertising they added. This was how my Lola came.

These days the box likely comes in a DVD version with the manual appearing as readable file on the actual CD, this saves on the cost of packaging. The extra ad crap they throw in with every purchase is also no bigger then a single sheet of paper (some software companies such as Maxis used to supply a ad leaflet as big as the manual).

Some companies were creative with their boxed versions, Arcanum (I think thats how it was spelt) came with a manual that was crammed full of interesting stuff about the game... I miss the card-board box software packed days somethings... Its rare companies bother with things like this now.
