CD duplication is still popular with corporate clients say executives at London-based replication and duplication firm VDC Group.

London, England -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/05/2012 -- Large scale manufacturers such as car firms, retail giants you will find on every high street and out of town mall and international food outlets all use CDs to pass on information to customers in a fun way.

"Let's face it a customer is far more likely to listen to a CD or watch a fun commercial on disc than he is to read a leaflet which just happens to be sticking out of a cardboard container at reception," said Ashwin Bedi, VDC Group MD.

"And it is not just us who believe that. We have the figures to back this kind of data up thanks to numerous surveys which have been carried out over the years."

VDC Group executives have always prided themselves on their indepth knowledge of their market. CD duplication and CD replication are tried and tested techniques which have been used in the CD copying market for the past two decades at least.

The CD discs themselves are far less sensitive than a DVD which means they won't get scratched so easily and are far tougher physically – hence the adverts where the CD is used as a coaster.

In addition it is far easier to copy data onto a CD than to replicate it. This is because the former is a far more simple process which can be achieved on a home computer. Replication, on the other hand, involves the use of a glass master disc and several 'stampers' along with mould injections. It is also far more costly and time consuming.

Another advantage of CD duplication is that it can be carried out quickly and often within the same day – despite the fact a standard disc can copy up to 80 minutes worth of data.

Once the CD duplication process is achieved companies often ask for the printing and packaging options offered by the company. This includes graphic design consultations and the production of prototypes as samples to be displayed at crucial board marketing meetings.

The firm also boasts a large 70,000 square foot storage warehouse and distribution facilities, either in house or via a tried and tested courier firm which will deliver UK wide. Providing a 'one stop' facilities tends to work out far cheaper for the client in the long run.

VDC Group who are experts in professional DVD replication and CD replication are also offering the much sought-after Hollywood-style Blu-ray manufacturing.

London, England -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/23/2012 -- As the largest independent manufacturer in the business, the company regarded the move to Blu-ray as essential and an important means of offering ongoing customers a continuing first-class service and an incentive to attract new clients.

Head of Sales at VDC Group, Mike Seaman said: "As a company we are obviously keen to keep up with the latest in technology breakthroughs when it comes to the DVD and CD replication and duplication industry.

"In terms of quality it is difficult to beat Blu-ray. That's why we have invested thousands of pounds in mastering and replication equipment to ensure we can produce the highest definition quality available on the market. The Blu-ray disc is currently the only means of giving the consumer full 3D content which they can enjoy when they want and in their own home."
 
As well as providing excellence in terms of quality, Blu-ray also offers the producer much more in terms of storage capacity. This means when it comes to blockbuster and smaller independent films producers have the space to include interviews with stars and behind-the-scenes shooting. It also allows them to generate much-needed income through providing advertising opportunities for companies with products related to the film.

Although Blu-ray is top of the game when it comes to quality, both CD duplication and DVD duplication work extremely well for the purposes for which they were designed, and very much within budget. For instance duplication works well for quantities of less than 500 units.

In DVD replication the storage capacity can be up to 14 times greater than that offered by CD-ROMS. This is because data is easily stored on both sides of the DVD while a dual-layer feature can increase information on the disc.

Not only that but the format also allows users to create their own menus and sub-titles. They can also add audio tracks. When it comes to recording film and video, DVD quality is excellent.

When it comes to copying CDs, replication rather than duplication tends to take place. Replication is not only faster, but provides better quality overall.

Large companies or independent clients who want the whole package when it comes to help with producing DVDs or CDs are delighted to learn that VDC Group can offer litho or silk screen printing services together with packaging, distribution and even storage. Their 70,000 square foot warehouse boasts plenty of capacity and top class security.

The VDC company believes in a cost-effective approach to CD replication and DVD replication. That's why staff will always advise on the best ways forward for particular ventures.

Mike Seaman added: "We always treat every client as an individual. We're not believers in the 'one size fits all' approach and never have been. Every project is different and to be honest, that's what makes it exciting for us as a company."

VDC Group Head of Sales Mike Seaman is confident his company provides the top DVD replication service in the UK.

London, England -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/20/2012 -- The group, which has thirty years of experience in the replication and duplication business to base their confidence on, are coming from a strong standpoint of experience and skill in the field.

Mr Seaman said: "We are no fly by night company but have decades of experience and knowledge to build on. Customers can trust us. They come back to us time and again because they know they are getting the benefit of years of expertise with their project.

"As a company we are conscious that every project is unique. Some will have more challenges than others but at VDC Group we are famous for never letting a customer down either in terms of quality or timing. Our aim is to never miss a deadline."

Clients use DVDs to display their goods and services in film or documentary format. Many say it is easier to 'show rather than tell'. It is also more entertaining and less taxing to watch a film than read a script so is a popular way of advertising and promoting.

The actual method of creating a DVD involves creating a glass master copy of the original DVD master. A stamper is then used as a base to provide hundreds or thousands of identical versions.

A DVD is created from two layers of data bonded together, thereby allowing more data to be stored (14 times more than on an actual CD). Images or text can then be stamped on the physical disc itself. Editing techniques, completed in a studio, can also involve adding menus, sub-titles or music to the DVD.

DVD replication can be costed per item which means that large orders are cheaper as unit costs come down considerably in terms of the more produced the lower the cost per unit.

For orders less than 500 DVD duplication is by far the most inexpensive option. This means transferring data directly onto the DVD using software. It costs less because no glass master copy is necessary. As a result it can also be produced at a far quicker rate, sometimes in a matter of 24 to 48 hours.

VDC Group can provide what is known as a one-stop-shop solution to CD &DVD replication in London or elsewhere in the UK.

For instance, as well as copying the DVD or CD the company will also print and provide customised design and packaging needs. They will also distribute the items or store them depending on their customer's needs at the time.

At VDC Group and beyond the company is well known for its flexible approach to clients allowing them to securely log-in to the website and track the progress of individual orders for themselves. Ordering and cancelling of projects can also be completed directly via the website giving clients more control of their order.
