When CD Team was formed over 15 years ago in 1995, a recordable disc could have cost you £15 and take an hour to record on a CD recorder that had cost you £2,000!
If all the discs we've supplied were put end to end....
Every single business day since 1995 we've been supplying
CD, DVD and Blu-ray discs throughout the UK and Europe to our customers, and thankfully, due to market growth, at much lower prices today.
After 15 years, it see! ms a good time to reflect on what just some of our customers have used those discs for:
Press kits, rat management in rural indian villages, training, software releases and updates, mapping data, gas pipe information, game code distribution, talking books, product launches, parts catalogues, backup data, brand awareness campaigns, Christmas cards, newsletters, radio archiving, film pre-release, music mastering, data archiving, instruction manuals, training programmes, court submission information, wedding day recording, aircraft flight operation, market research distribution, reboot discs, microfilm conversion, charity promotion, military vehicle operation, general security service work, heart data recording, films on demand, music on demand, software on demand, county council records, central government databases, brand guidelines, product warranty registration, business strategy launches, data encryption products, patient recor! ds, financial updates, legal recording, credit information, sea change data, outside broadcast recording, karaoke, digital photo albums and libraries, cv's, church sermon recordings, self help guides, live concert recording, oil pipeline data, annual reports, competitions, mail shots, Christmas decorations (hung from a Christmas tree they shine and look ironically cool), tourism audio guides, library archiving, university launch packs, pharmaceutical product analysis, architect drawing and design, CCTV, Police surveillance and other things we are not at liberty to talk about!
This list is by no means exhaustive and the continued innovative uses of this stable format for transferring and storing data, sound and images continues to roll along. This is especially true where newer technologies such as Blu-ray and 3D broadcasting are growing in popularity.
We looked at our records and wondered how far all the discs ! we had sold would reach starting from our offices in Henley?
....they would reach right across the Atlantic to New York!
Who knows, in just a few more years they could reach all the way back to Henley again!
Our discs reached the Big Apple, now here's your chance to win a Little Apple! Enter our
