This document explains the differences between DVD replication and DVD duplication, highlighting that replication is a more complex process involving creating clones from a master copy. It details the technical aspects of replication, including glass mastering and injection molding, as well as the benefits of replicated DVDs such as durability and high-volume production. The document also mentions the services associated with DVD replication, including printing, labeling, and packaging.

2. DVD replication and DVD duplication are often used
to define each other mistakenly. However, there are
some basic differences in these two processes.DVD
duplication is the process of copying data into a new
disc, whereas DVD replication involves much
complicated methods. This is the process of creating
a clone of a master copy and during the
manufacturing period that content of the DVD is
formatted onto a new disc. Moreover, the process of
replication is carried out by experienced technicians
in special replication firms. Thereby, the replicated
DVDs are uniquely processed and are more durable
that the duplicated DVDs.

3. Usually, two types of printings are used for DVD
replications - the offset printing and the screen
printing. These replicated DVDs can also have a
number of information layers. These layers enable
the replicated DVD to execute the stored information
exactly like its master DVD. In fact, these replicated
DVDs are also referred to as the clones of the
original DVDs. The high volume running capacity of
these replicated DVDs also makes them unique. The
standard turn-time for this process is at least 7-8
business days. It is better to opt for bulk DVD
replication as it decreases the overheads and thus
the cost is relatively lower.

4. The process of DVD replication includes two
important processes. This includes glass mastering
and molding. In the procedure of glass
mastering, the glass masters are made with the help
of the master DVDs and then the glass masters are
allowed to create the molds. In the injection molding
process, the molds are kept in well featured and
highly advanced injection machines. This helps to
create replicas in form of plastic discs. These discs
are then bonded together and are coated with layers
of thin reflective aluminum.

5. Finally the replicated DVDs are hardened by using
ultraviolet rays and are protected with lacquer.
Throughout the process, the quality and accuracy of
the DVDs are checked. DVD replication services
also include printing, labeling, and packaging.
