Has to be converted to MPEG first and is used to master for any other format. MPEG 1 we find to be the most sound format for universal purposes.

When there is high volume to be completed say 20 DVD's and you really do not want to spend the money on the man power or resources than it is a very fair price. As technology keeeps getting more advanced the need has decreased dramatically. There is still an art to doin it though. It is fairly automated but I think our quality is pretty damn good. Our full screen looks as good as anything I have ever seen.

If you are a smaller webmaster it is a quality issue I suppose we know the art of encoding if you simply do not want to do it yourself we represent a very sound reliable and high quality solution. Some of our clients do high enough volume that they would have to bring someone in on payroll and would have to come out of pocket a pretty good chunk of change for the hardware required to run 60 movies a month.

There is some light editing invloved. if you look at what the going rate for other companies they are charging $13.50 per minute for three formats and three data rates. The other thing that i have not mentioned is that we are able to get great qulity from a a small file size. I think this above everything is what brings people back to us every month. I am not saying we are the very best on the planet but we generally get rave reviews from our customers.

$2.00 per minute is actually a very good price for getting really good work in a reasonable turnaround time. I think most who out source this work would readily agree that the price is pretty good.

There are people who do a good work.......the question is can they maintain the quality with 2 terabytes a month. The machines do most of the work but it really is like spinning plates if you have 15 movies cooking at the samer time it takes more running around than you might expect. If you truly want good quality you have to make some human interaction.

I think our work is truly worth $4.00 per minute.....Just my honest opinion.

I am sure five years from now a 5th grader will be able to rip a dvd and have it playing on a wall mounted plasma from a wireless connection.....lol
