DVD Replication?

[Retro Horror]

Hi all! Great site here and wish I'd have found it earlier.

Does anyone know the best company in either the U.S., or Canada that specializes in the most professional quality dvd replication from a glass master? I guess the full package including menus would be the best. I'm not looking for anything under 5000 copies and am aiming for around 10,000 to start. Metal tins would also be something I'd be interested in.

I just read a thread on here that sparked quite the debate between DVD's and digital downloads. Except, my mind is made up on this so I figured I would start my own thread.

I have already done the google thing, and.. well, that gave me some rough ideas on cost, and a lot of sites saying they're the best, but for my first movie that's under the $100,000 budget range, I'd
hate to go with the wrong company and screw this up. Any tips would be great, thanks.

I have used these guys for my small projects. http://www.nationwidedisc.com/
A quick look showed 5000 discs for under 4k.

That's not a bad price. Did they do any of the authoring for you, or did you go with both inserts for your cases? If so, did they have the big studio quality look to them?

The price isn't something that will bother me, though. Honestly, if it's the most expensive site and can go up in the hundred thousand range, I would feel more comfortable dealing with them.

That's not a bad price at all. Did they do the authoring for you? Cases with both inserts? If so, did they resemble anything the big studios would release?

I think I might feel more comfortable, though, dealing with the most expensive site that could produce up to the maximum available. Price isn't much of a concern compared to quality.

This is the second time I typed that and lots of blue up there on the first one.

Hopefully this submit works

Rainbo Records in Chatsworth has been in business since like 1948.
Manufacture as little as possible. Physical media is becoming obsolete REAL fast. I don't know how many people are buying DVD's now, but with CD's I sell 9 digital download albums for every 1 hard copy CD.
