CD Duplication (DiscMakers?)
Next month I'll be shipping off a CD for 500-1000 copies. Is DiscMakers still a good place to go? This looks like a really good deal - 1,000 DigiPaks for $990. http://www.discmakers.com/products/dp400.asp We were only planning on burning 500 (I'd be shocked if we sold more than that...), but with this coupon it's pretty much the same cost to do 1,000. I guess once you add shipping the difference between 500 and 1,000 gets bigger...

I've been an authorized studio partner with them for the past couple of years so I might be slightly biased but Disk Makers is about as good as it gets in this industry. There are tons of options though and it pays to shop around. I would. But having dealt with them now for a while, seen and heard the results of the work they do, I would go with them if I was doing my own album. You might be able to save a penny here or there elsewhere. At the end of the day, I'll bet everyone is within a few cents of each other.
Good luck with your order. Let us know how it turns out for you.

+1 for Discmakers - especially now since they've cut their rates. I'm guessing they're feeling the pinch from the reduction in CD sales by the public and they're pricing accordingly.

I just used Discmakers for this CD, and thought they did a great job.

Superdups.com is supposed to be quite good and only about 99 cents each if you want lower quanitities.

Thanks for the responses.
I'll check them out Janet - if we decide to only order 300 or so, it might be a better deal as long as the quality's good.
Gary - congrats on your CD!

Yes.
+ 1 for discmakers, great service. The production specialist are very attentive to whatevr concerns you might have.
...and the final product is a lot better than some other "top" name duplicators i have used.

What about Oasis? I get a lot of stuff from them and they appear to be on an equal level with Discmakers. Anybody have any experience with them?
