No one is paying for them anymore......... they are usually part of value-added services within packages at CD duplication houses.

Unless you're producing your own glass master and own a clean room (which runs into hundreds of thousands of dollars), you CAN'T be "professionally duplicating" CDs.

Using a CD duplicator is identical to creating CD-Rs, NOT the same as glass-master pressing done at a duplcation house........
 
SO what about the orbit duplicator which run about $1999 is that just for creating cdr
 
The Orbit is a good duplicator - but it is doing the same process you would do to copy a CD/CD-R on your computer, only in a larger scale in batch mode.

CDs copied this way are the same as any other CD-R, and very different than commercially-produced audio CDs.
 
cool

is there a noticeable difference in quality, or is it just to insure that there isn't any lint or dust packaged with the disk that may compromise it? i once heard that cd's came in grades, gold(best), silver(good), blue(decent), this was told to me while i was overseas, but then again a lot of lies were told to me over there. lol.
 
Just CDr's lose read abilty faster than professionally duplicated CD's. The only company I know of that does it for a decent price is Discmakers.
 
Commercial CDs are PRESSED, CD writers and duplicators BURN CD-Rs....

There's a big difference between the 2 processes.
 
No -- pressed CDs have much better pit definition, and are playable in ANY CD player....

CD-Rs have much weaker pit definition and require either computer drives, or newer CD players with higher-powered laser optics to read back.
