Sony Format 3/4" U-Matic: This has been the "defacto" CD master standard since the advent of the Compact Disc. Many major label operations still use this format as a compact disc master.
Pros: Computer analysis of data integrity prior to shipment. The data stream is deemed suitable as it leaves mastering for the plant.
Cons: More expensive than alternatives and plants' machinery can tend to "eat" or damage the tape through quality control handling.
Write-Once CD: This popular form of master is used usually by many labels, and individual artist projects as it is 100% compact disc compatible. The $50 dollar master price includes PQ encoding of track access marks, ISRC encoding, prep and laser writing time, and generic labeling. The $20 additional copy fee is for additional copies for which a CDR master has been previously prepared and still is held on the system. Please order additional copies at the time of master approval.
Pros: Less prone to shipping and handling damage. Can be played and auditioned by client on any CD player.
Cons: No available computer data stream analysis.
