What is Replication and why ?

This is a manufacturing process.  The media, DVD or CD etc is replicated or cloned from a master. A glass master is made, then a set of molds or stampers are made from the master.

The disc is  treated and coated with a layer of aluminium that is very thin and reflective. Finally a protective lacquer is spun onto the disc and hardened using UV  light. 3rd eye broadcast DVD services recommend this process for runs larger than 1000.

The main reason to replicate, is that on larger runs, it is cheaper, more efficient and quicker.
