OT: DVD Duplication firms: Suggestions?

plasmavideo wrote on 5/27/2009, 6:23 AM

I'm wrapping up a video for an agency that will require many more DVDs than I can comfortably do myself, so I'm looking for any vendors that provide multiple DVD copies, professionally pressed.

Are there any that you have used and can recommend? We are looking at quantities anywhere frrom 200 to 1000 at this point.

TIA

Tom

First of all, you want replication, not duplication.

I've tried a few, Nationwide is the one I continue to use. They don't have any hidden, last minute, "Oh, by the way..." fees. One of the things I like best is they offer instant pricing.

Thanks Jay.

Yes, I should have said replication. I didn't know that term until checking out several websites this morning before your response. One site had a good explanation of the difference between the two terms.

I'll check the site you listed. Thank you very much!

In respect to quantity, some venders will only do "replication" on quantities over 500, anything under is "duplicated".

I work for DVS, a well respected service bureau in the midwest US. We can duplicate discs quickly and we also broker replication. On the duplicaiton side we offer some pretty cool things that the others don't, like our four color digital print process, so please check out the company site at www.dvs.com. If you have any other questions you can feel free to shoot me an email from my username.
