CD Replication
So what is CD replication exactly? Well CD replication is a process whereby a CD
master is pressed into many CD copies, which is usually for more than a 500 copies or
more. It is the most professional way to produce your CD for marketing to your future or
existing customers.Companies that can provide you with CD replication services can
usually also provide you with professional packaging options for your CD product. They can
provide you with a finished product with the CD inside jewel cases and the CD cover placed
inside the jewel case. The CD replication companies usually automate this process,
alternatively they can supply you with the CDs in bulk and you can put them in the jewel
cases and add the CD covers yourself as this would get the cost of production down for
you. The drawback of doing this of course is that it is fiddly and time consuming to do
but is an option if your budget is tight.
