The company is called Kunaki.

Check out these graphics. http://Kunaki.com/Sales.asp?PID=PX00WH9B5F

It took me about half a day to produce this CD from library files, design the jewell case with a free download by Acoustica, and order my proof copy, which was delivered to me for free.

My unit cost is $1.75 and the individual shipping cost for 1 CD is $5.00.

If I charge $5.00 for the CD, they do all the work for me and I receive $3.25.

You can order by PayPal or credit card. If I order 500 to be drop shipped to CD Baby or Amazon, the shipping is free.

All I have to order is 1 copy every 6 months to keep the product active.

I ordered 100 for a total cost of $204.00 and I am selling them locally for a good cause. I'm making $7.96 for every CD to donate to a family whose house burned down and have no insurance.

I'm not trying to sell CDs here, just turning you on to a VERY user friendly company.

Plus I now have a kick ass CD and yesterday I was unpublished. :)
 
That looks pretty cool. I'll have to look into these guys next time a make a CD. Thanks.
 
I've used kunaki as well.. They're great... I will definately be using them again when we shop our new album around..

they do good work
 
This sounds like a good deal. I assume they also replicate your CD, not just print it? Meaning you have to uploade all your songs onto their weg page along with the artwork. Is there any chance they do booklets?

Yeah, you basically do a playlist in your media player and then burn a CD. Then you upload the whole CD at once to the company. I think they tweak the volumes to make them even during the "mastering" phase, but it's not really mastering.

Then you upload the artwork, but no booklets, just two pages. The first page becomes the front cover and the inside, the second the tray and the back cover. Your disc is also printed with your artwork.

If you look at mine, you can see that it's easy to list the tracks in a circle.
 
wow.. good find... This is exactly what I need. I was going to do everything by hand, but this is way easier and cheaper.

edit: Would you mind posting actual pictures of the disc/case?

I could, c_olin, but the pictures would look exactly like what you see above.

Click on the link and go to the upper left hand corner where it says rotate case.

You will see a series of four pictures, front, back, inside and disc. They look exactly like that.

It's just a matter of what pictures you upload to the company. The better the picture, the better the graphics. I always choose 600 pixels per sq. inch, whatever that means, it's the highest. HTH

Bottom line is, you can go cheaper, but with this company you can order 100 copies. Most people have a 1000 minimum. I've heard of stories where bands have 937 CDs hanging around.:D

I was just interested in see the print quality. But it sounds as though you are very satisfied with it. I will be giving this a shot once I complete my next album.

Did you hit the rotate case button. If so, then you saw it.

Yes, what I saw is a digital render representing what the CD looks like, not an actual photo.

Yeah, well that's as good as it gets. My graphics suck. I used a grainy photo of a painting by Paul Guiguin called Agony in the Garden. The back cover looks exactly like that with all the pixels broken up of the Phoenix bird.

If I took a picture of it, it would suck, too, but that's not Kunaki's fault.:)
