In this new era of high definition sound and picture, Blu-Ray technology leads the field. The look of DVDs, CDs, and Blu-ray disks are identical, but compared to the first two, Blu-ray can hold almost 50GB of data, complete with absolutely picture perfect image quality and sound!
The increased storage capacity is a direct result of how closely and compactly blue ray data can be stored. Data is stored in pits. On a Blu-Ray disc the pits can be packed more closely together and each pit can hold more data then is possible on standard DVDs or CDs. The name Blu-Ray was derived because the data on such discs is read by a blue ray. Although Blu-Ray discs are the same size and shape as CDs and DVDs, many CD and DVD players lack the capability to play the Blu-Ray discs.
Animation and audio technology are also developing and they too are exceeding the capabilities of ordinary CD and DVD data storage. In fact, many of the newer video and audio presentations need resolutions of up to 6x what CDs and DVDs can provide. As the need for Blu-Ray technology expands, audio and video companies are investigating the practicality and cost-effectiveness of Blu-Ray replication and/or duplication. Because manufacturing and licensing costs more, Blu-Ray replication can be extremely costly.
Blu Ray duplication, on the other hand, is really cheap. Blu Ray duplicator towers can be used to record whatever format of Blu-Ray you want, even CD and BR-Rs. With these towers, the source format is detected right away, and a rewritable BR disc is created. In the process of Blu Ray duplication, a blank media is imprinted with a disk image. Due to the hard drive partition system that the tower possesses, hard drive partitions can be intuitively created, depending on how big the image is; this can save you a lot of space in the long run.
Compared to Blu Ray replication, there’s a lot to like about Blu ray duplication. One big factor is affordability. Licencing fees are the first thing one things about when they recall Blu Ray video. You can sometimes pay thosuands to get a single title through the AACS (Advanced Access Content System). With Blu Ray duplication, however, you don’t have to worry about these fees. As a result, it’s much cheaper to do duplication.
