BLU-RAY
Duplicate CD's, DVD's and Blu-Ray Discs
In February 2002 Blu-ray became an official project and the Blu-Ray Disc Founders was created. At this time there still was no standard for Blu-ray. On October 4, 2004, the Blu-ray Disc Founders was officially changed to the Blu-ray Disc Association(BDA), and 20th Century Fox joined the BDA’s Board of Directors.
Blu-ray’s original codec in early 2006 was MPEG-2 the same as HD DVD. In September the same year AVC and VC-1 codecs were introduced. Movies were then released in October using discs of dual layer (50GB) or single layer (25GB). Sony introduced the first re-writable blu-ray disc drive for the PC in July 2006.
Today Blu-ray is the far superior in both video quality and sound experience. It also supports a full 1080P format. A single format disc can store up to 25GB of data while the DVD format could only store 4 GB.
For those wanting to take advantage of the blu-ray capacity and create multiple copies of presentations or other large amounts of data to multiple Blu-ray discs check out disk duplicators: http://www.usbdevicelounge.com/miscellaneous.
CD/DVD DISC DUPLICATORS
Get the message out. Have a large presentation for multiple locations? Disc Duplicators will help you copy those files or presentations from a CD/DVD or Blue Ray Disc to as many discs as you need with very little or no intervention after the initial setup.
Disc Duplicator
There are one-to-one disc duplicators, one-to-several and one-to-many. Most are connected as a USB device. You can stack 80 blank discs on some models and start the process. The master is read and placed into memory and each disc is then written as an exact copy. After each is done it’s moved robotically to the finished stack and moves onto the next. If 80 discs aren’t enough just fill the bin before the discs runout and duplication is never interrupted while the copying process is working.
If you think GREEN Technology, there are models available that will not only burn discs without intervention but with the right discs can burn the label right on the CD/DVD or Blue Ray disc. This process came from HP called LightScribe Technology. This eliminates the hassle of printing separate labels and trying to place them on straight.
Overall disc duplicators will save you time and money for your large or not so large jobs of copying discs.
