Re: New Macbook - Deliberately hobbled?

[Jeremy Garchow] "I did Google it and found one in Chicago, actually. It was no less than 1,000 discs made @ $3.25 a disc, which did not include a $1300 AACS fee plus $.04 per disc for the AACS. So, that means I can get 1,000 discs (no less) and that will cost me $4,590 plus tax and shipping. Cheaper than when I last checked, but still not cheap."

One thing I NEVER said is that BluRay is cheap. I just said there are more BluRay replication options out there than 14 months ago.

Here is the company in Phoenix

ProAction Media
http://www.proactionmedia.com

These folks are actively touting DoStudio as an authoring option for folks like us and then we can send the master to them for replication. Not sure if they take a BD-R or a DLT, we never got that far in our discussions as we are self-publishing all our own work for now. We've run about 300 BluRays now out of our own equipment.

The price for all the equipment was less than a single run of BluRay discs at the time and I'm still glad we have all of this gear here. It's great for runs of 10 to 50 at a time.
