Audio CD Duplication as a Profitable Business
CD duplication has grown to be a profitable business these days. And why not, when it requires minimum investment and man power with a promise of good return since the demand is ever increasing. Anyone owning a computer at home can start CD duplication as a business. Computers these days come with a readable and writable CD drive. Initially you need software to burn CDs in order to produce duplicate CDs, CD labeling software along with a printing device and materials for CD packaging.
Buying CD Duplication Software
You have choices when it comes to buying CD duplication software. Many of the software companies come with big promises. As a customer you only need to make sure whether most of those promises are true. You should choose CD duplication software depending on your requirement. If your requirement is, say, burning 100 to 100 CDs you can do well with regular CD burners. But if you intend to make it larger, that is, burning more than 1000 CDs you need specially designed CD burner software tailored to meet the requirement of mass CD duplication, which is commonly known as CD replication.
Though downloadable free versions of CD duplication software are available on the internet you should put your money to purchase an authentic one for commercial use. Free versions come with basic features and mostly devoid of advanced features for optimized usage. The cost of CD duplication software has also reduced considerably. So, why take risks? After all, it's all about replicating the data as it is from the master CD. If a bit of it is lost or the CD is damaged while burning you are at loss.
Targeting Local Market
Starting CD duplication as a business requires identifying your market. Local bands, musicians and small enterprises can make potential clients. Upcoming, not yet popular musicians need CDs with their music recorded in it to be released or distributed to various music companies. They don't have time to take up the task of audio CD duplication and packaging themselves, neither can they afford any big CD duplication service. Same is true for small businesses that need to create CDs for manuals, presentation, training and demo for marketing purpose. You can fill up the gap by offering your service at a price they can easily afford and with a promise of fast delivery.
CD Packaging
However, duplicating CDs is not the end of the story. You need to label those CDs and pack them in order to create finished product. Initially creating labels and sticking those on the disc face was a tedious, time consuming task with risk of error, that is, sticking wrong label or sticking it wrongly. But with new CD labeling software you can create attractive full-color labels on CD within a few seconds. Using LightScribe technology reduces the task of printing and sticking labels into one as the LightScribe drive etches the label on the disc face. It ensures full color label printing with finer finish.

Colored Lightscribe Dvds?
I know that there are colored lightscribe cd-r, but do they make colored dvd-/+r as well? And if so, then who makes them?
Not yet. The color CD-Rs were just released at the end of last year. HP's LightScribe marketing manager says they are working on color-background DVD-Rs, but no official launch date is set. See the article at the link below.
They predict they will be available later this year, but that is as specific as they get.
