Perhaps you've finished up a recording of your own; maybe you've decided to store your documents and photos on CDs. Maybe you just want to record a speech or seminar for future reference. Regardless of the particulars, you probably have a need for CD replication.

No doubt you'll want at least one copy for your own use and a copy or two as backups in case this original disc is lost or damaged. You'll probably also want to make additional copies to share with friends and family. There are two ways to go if you need to make a lot of copies of a CD. You can repeat the same recording process over and over or you can choose to use a CD replication program.

Rather than just making copy after copy of your documents or other files, you could record your CD a single time and use CD replication software to make as many copies of the CD as needed. However, you'll want to be sure that you spend your money wisely and choose a high quality CD replication program.

Many computers will come with a CD replication program already installed.

Electronics stores online and brick and mortar usually have a variety of CD replication programs. However, shop around and find one which is of good quality.
