New year CD releases….

Wednesday, December 17th, 2008

Many I am sure will be glad to see the back of 2008 and those of us in the DVD and CD manufacturing industry are no different! With the fight against piracy continuing and the poor economy resulting in many CD replication companies failing a fresh new year we can hope will bring a change [...]

CD Replication - quality or cheap?

Monday, December 15th, 2008

Let’s face it. The words “quality” and “cheap” rarely go together and the same is for CD replication.

Clean up piracy deadline set…

Wednesday, December 10th, 2008

Curries, Tesco, Sainsburys and even [...]

Blu-Ray Player Shortage…

Tuesday, December 2nd, 2008

It seems every year this happens. A new platform is launched and the maufacturers cannot supply enough to meet the demand of the pre Christmas market. This year is no exception (although it is not about a new games console).
Blu-Ray players have dramatically lowered in price and as predicted, the demand for this format has [...]
