I believe someone in rec.video quoted a price of $2100 US
for 1000 ( One Thousand ) CDs, starting from an digital
master on magnetic tape. Converting an analog tape to digital
was said to cost $50 US or so.

By comparason, cassete ttapes can be produced ( on Type I tape )
for under $0.80 US each in quantity 1000, acording to my
brother John who is a musician in Washington D.C.

Media included for both prices, of course.

So, anyone know what commercial floppy production costs ?
