Multiple Disc Argument - It just doesn’t work for anyone.

Hmm... getting prices for actual replication is a bitch, since everyone seems to want you call or e-mail for a quote, but here are some numbers I've found, allowing replication of 5000 copies:

DVD-5: 53 cents each
DVD-9: 58 cents each
BR-25: $1.57 each (site: http://www.sfvideo.com/ )

DVD (unspecified size): 58 cents each, will drop to 19 cents each for large enough (unspecified) order
BR-25: $2.20 each, or $1.95 each at 10K units (site: http://www.rovix.com )

DVD-5: 50.58 cents each
DVD-9: 72.68 cents each
BR not offered (site: http://www.nationwidedisk.com )

So what I'm seeing is still a significant gap in pricing for making a disk. 2 DVD-9s appear to be cheaper than a single BR-25 in all cases, however. So no, pressing BR disks is not cheaper. (Also note that I did not find pricing for pressing BR-50s at all, so I can't look at that angle.)

look again .that still depends on the volume and a company by company basis, those you listed do you think they get the volume's that say a company like Sony get.

say as an example of one of the companies you jist listed for rovix

AACS and disc royalty charge is included.
Freight is not included.

listed is :

10000……$1.95 each
5000........$2.20 each
2500........$2.75 each
1000........$3.90 each

now think about how many these game companies need produced!

quite a bit more than 10,000 copies!

noticed at a 1000 it's $3.90 but drop's to $1.95 nwo what's the order per disc when you order 100,000+

LET'S TAKE AS AN EXAMPLE Square:

FFXIII  they put out 1.8 million copies in japan first week?

and that's with BD-50's which be more expensive than BD 25's but with the greator volume rovix's price dropped per disc the more you order, with 100,000+

your saving's would be better than it would be at  $10,000

here is one:

$1.44 @ 100,000 per 25 , and for BD 50's its $2.55 per $10,000
