Q5: What is the difference between Duplication and Replication?
A: Duplication is often referred to as "Burning" a disc where the information is being copied directly onto the surface of the disc. Replication is the industry standard of major commercial releases. It is created by molding polycarbonate substrates and physically pressing the data into the surface of the disc.

Q6: Can you help with or design my artwork?
A: We have graphic artists who can provide guidance on developing your artwork. If you require more than that, our graphic artists can design or modify your artwork for you. Please contact a sales representative for rates.

Q7: Can I send my master disc electronically?
A: Yes, a client can upload a DDP or ISO file directly onto our FTP site. This method allows you to save both time and money. Please visit our website for upload instruction or speak with one of our sales rep for assistance. Alternately, a physical master can be sent to us via courier, mail or you can personally drop it off.

Q8: What resolution do you recommend me using when designing my artwork?
A: To get the best possible result a minimum of 300 dpi is preferred. Using anything less may result in poor quality print.

Q9: Do you test for sound quality?
A: We will not check for sound quality. It is the client's responsibility to listen to the audio. We will only check for errors in the data of the master disc to ensure there will not be any static or abnormal noises that could potentially distort or corrupt our manufacturing process.

Q10: What is the difference between a DVD-5 and a DVD-9?
A: A DVD-5 is a Single Sided/Single Layered disc with a data storage capacity of 4.7GB. A DVD-9 is a Single Sided/Dual Layered disc with a data storage capacity of 8.5GB.
