I searched and didnt really see this question ever asked anywhere...only how much to charge.

Who do you go to have your CD/DVDs developed for clients (for those who dont do them at home)? I'm looking for a website or something so I can price it out. Obviously want it to look professional and better than what I can do on my CD/DVD burner.

Thank you,

Anthony

how many are you talking about doing? one, two, five, ten for a single job? or hundreds or thousands? are you talking about the production/duplication of the data, or the label and packaging, or both?

if you are only doing a few at a time, there are plenty of affordable printers that can print right on the cd.

you might find it cost prohibitive to pay someone to professionally package a very short run of a single cd/dvd.

Get any DVD Burner with LightScribe technology; HP makes some, LaCie has a very good one, around $130. These use the burner's own laser to do professional looking scribing right on the disc. It's not gonna be cost-effective for you to outsource these at 1-2 copies per job.
