Guide To Finding The Best Services For CD Duplication
There is a CD duplication service out there that can serve your bulk production needs. Maybe you’re a computer programmer offering your software to needy customers. Maybe you’re a new face in the music industry and want to get that opening CD album out there to the masses. Or maybe you have a family album on CD and a really, really large family!!! No matter what the reason is, there are services that can help. Although there are literally thousands of choices, we’ll hone in on a couple that caught our eye. Diskmakers.com is one such source. Not only can they crank out those CDs by the thousands, they can even handle your promotional printing, from stickers to posters and more. Let’s say you need 1,000 disks with no packaging. It only costs $490...which is 49 cents per disk! They don’t outsource their orders. They handle everything right there on site in their factory. Doing this lets them get your job finished super fast. Regular orders take only 5 days, but if you’re in a hurry, no problem. They can get to you even sooner! They handle short run discs (through online duplication), mass copies, packages for CDS (cases, eco-wallets, or DVDigipak). For more information, hit their web site at www.discmakers.com. Another nice company is Mixonic. Their motto: from 1 to 1 million discs, we’re here to serve you! They offer both CD/DVD replication and duplication. The difference—replication involves literally making the CD from scratch. A master disc is used to first make a “glass master”, then an injection mold (or stamper), then a disc with content on it. Finally, the artwork or logo is printed onto the disc. This method is more economical for a large order (1,000 or more). Duplication is something most people do in their own homes—basically burning a CD onto an already existing blank CD or DVD. This method is good for shorter runs (less than 1,000). Duplication can be done as quickly as a single business day, while replication can take a week or longer. Mixonic lets you order everything online, and offers top-notch support for all your inquiries. If you don’t take their word for it—how about their customers? Adobe, Palm, C|Net, Philips, EA Sports, Cornell University and lots more have turned to Mixonic for their needs. You should too! Go to www.mixonic.com and find out what it’s all about! Here are just some general tips for whatever company you decide on. Make sure the company is reputable and experienced. You want them to be reputable because you don’t want them stealing your stuff. You need them to be experienced to avoid a poorly formatted or error-filled finished product. Also be sure they can get you what you need in time if you’re on a tight deadline. Finally, know where to look for the right CD duplication service—online, in the yellow pages, or down the corner.
