CD REPLICATION / DUPLICATION
There are two ways you can get
your CD or DVD copied, namely CD/DVD Replication or CD
Duplication. Replication means the disc will be pressed from a glass
master and the artwork will be printed directly onto the disc surface just
like any CD or DVD you find in retail stores. Duplication means the disc
will be burned from CD-R or DVD-R media and the artwork will be printed
on a paper label which is then applied onto the disc surface.
How do you know which method to use? If you have enough time and the ordered
quantity is 800 or more you should always use CD replication or DVD replication.
The only time you would resort to CD duplication or DVD duplication is when
your order is less than 800 or you need to rush the order. In that case
you should use CD duplication or DVD duplication. 7th Avenue Media always
does the "compare and verify" for all the CD duplication and DVD duplication
orders.
