You must not have talked with Amazon.com because they don't care about your market size. They advertise, they handle the sale, you ship the product. You don't get orders, that's your problem. I'm sure you pay something for the opportunity, but it's clearly not a lot from the people who sell there.
I pay seems to me about $.60 per CD and jewel case Replacement CD recording units are what maybe $30 or $40 and you just stuff them in your computer. We've burned probably 400 CD's and are still doing it on the same burner. So that's ten cents a CD if the burner dies tomorrow. You might get it up to a dollar with a label and wrap. You charge for shipping so that's covering packaging costs. And this is when you're dealing in the 50 and 100 quantities.

But you still have to consider the cost of CD creation, not to mention the hardware itself. The CD burners we all have on our machines, as Thomas Ward's already said, aren't designed for mass production. Give them a couple hundred burns and they go out on you. Even though Amazon.com might be willing, they'd need informatinon the size of the market (which is another stumbling block because as much as we hate to admit it we're a minority), and if enough people aren't interested they're not going to go for it. It ain't pretty when the pretty leaves you with no place to go. J.D.
