- Admittedly, I know very little about the business of setting up
- a CD plant, but it seems you can cut costs... this may entail
- not meeting the standards for CD manufacture, though. For example,
- a "sort of clean" clean room is probably cheaper than a "really
- clean" one. Then there's the quality of the materials used for
- the substrate, plastic, and inks. Surely there are different levels
- of CD quality -- I can't believe that all the CDs which come out
- of the plant are good. A certain percentage must be below spec.
- You can save money by not worrying about quality control...
