this may be of interest to anyone who's hand-burning cd-rs for a label
or for their own use or whatnot--i know there's a lot of you on this
list, hence this semi-off-topic post.
i've been inquiring that place called "diskmarket"
(
http://www.diskmarket.com) for blank digipaks. digipaks are those
cardboard sleeves with a plastic cd holder glued in. i think they're
pretty slick & look a hell lot better than regular jewel cases. anyway,
their price is $1.19 each (which for all i know isn't bad) but the
minimum buy is 1000. i don't need 1000, nor do i have the money to buy
that many (in fact i need approximately 200, 300 at most, at least for
now), so i'm checking with this list to see if some of you would be
interested in purchasing some with me so we could split the costs of
1000 (or more if there's a demand for it).
why buy digipaks if they're blank? if you print your cover on sticker
paper, you only need one printing (rather than 2 or more if you make a
jewel case cover, plus making sure everything looks good on both sides,
& all the hassle that comes with it). or even better, you can make
"white label cdrs" with them! i just think they look spiffy, really, &
if you run a label, they usually sell better than ordinary jewel cases.
obviously if anybody can tell me of some other place that sells them
cheaper & in smaller bulks, please raise your hand. :)
if interested, please reply privately so as to not clog the list with
digipak threads. :)
thanks,
