CD and DVD replication services may be needed when people want to produce many versions of the same compact or digital video disc. The home user is unlikely to reach the quantities involved here, which means it is policy for them if they want to duplicate data, video or audio to rely on their personal computer. It can often do a fair job of replicating a disc with the minimum of effort.
However, the process becomes time consuming and costly when someone reaches a certain number of things to be copied. 10 or more items may prove too long a wait for a normal computer to do the task one at a time. Duplications services are therefore needed for small runs of discs (generally, up to 500). At that point, even the basic industrial copying service becomes too costly.
Duplicators will be ideal for runs up to and including about 500 or 1,000 discs. Once the quantity goes beyond that point, a replicator is required. They work in a different way to duplicators (who simply scale up the home process), by creating a glass master disc which will be used to hard press data onto the number of copies needed. Because there is an additional step, setting up time is longer, but the cost overall is lower. Additionally, it is longer lasting.
The best of the many people offering this work will ensure their high standard is kept. Because digital media such as these discs are often prone to not working, this is important. Coasters are not helpful to anyone.
Some will not require a face to face meeting with the potential client, or even an original copy of the disc. Today, fast internet speeds thanks to broadband mean that the 700 megabytes or 1.4 gigabytes of data which can be stored on each respective disc can be uploaded via a simple online wizard to the company to begin the process as speedily as possible without relying on snail mail.
People may have many reasons to use these kinds of services. A start up business may be starting a client drive to get new people and work. Therefore, they might create a DVD based multimedia portfolio explaining their skills. This can sometimes have extraordinary results.
Others may rely on it to produce a simple and accessible collection of conference materials. CD and DVD replication can produce a copy of every paper and every presentation delivered at the conference on one single disc which can be seen and stored after the event. Many conferences use this already.
