(HI JON!!!)

Jon describes how to make 1000 CDs, here is how to make ONE

If you want to avoid costs, record an RDAT digital cassette at 44.1 kHz.
Place start IDs at the beginning of each track
send it to someone with a Gotham Audio SPOT 90 CD-R recording system
(or similar).

a quote from United Audio Corporation:

Record CD from client's master tape (R-DAT)

	1 copy $195
	2-9 copies $160 each
	10-20 copies $120 each
	(from the same master tape)

	if you supply them with a 48kHz R-DAT, Reel to Reel or PCM-F1
	master tape, the R-DAT costs $12 for the sub master.

	If they add the start IDs, $35 more

	if they edit, $50/hr

Based on other quotes from various places, this is about average. 

To do 1000 discs, it costs about $2500 for the pressing with full 
color 4 page books.
