The CD-Recordable market exploded in 1997 with no signs
of slowing down in the future. CD-ROM has become the media of choice for a wide range of
different computer applications, thus catapulting the CD-R market into the homes of
millions of end users. Here are a few facts* that put this market trend in perspective:
- Over 70 million CD-R discs were sold worldwide in 1996.
- In 1997, the market exploded with CD-R sales increasing to 200 million.
- Predictions estimate that sales will reach 400 million this year.
- Similar percentage gains are expected for the number of CD-R drives.
Multimedia professions, software designers, graphic
artists, desktop publishers and musicians regard CD-ROM as the only practical way to store
and distribute their work. Many companies, including law and insurance firms, are
dependent upon the CD-ROM for storage, archiving, and distribution.
How Do You Label and Package the Darn Things?
"Today, thousands of companies and individuals are
using CD-R systems to master their own small runs of discs for both internal and external
distribution," said Peter Tracy, NEATO President. "However, people quickly
realize that it is extremely difficult to get discs labeled properly and in a
professional-looking way. Too often, people just resort to writing on the disc with a pen
- which makes a brand new CD look terrible! And then there is the whole challenge of
packaging the CD."
"The NEATO CD Labeler system provides an excellent
alternative...it's the finishing touch that can make any CD-ROM look great, both on the
label and in the jewel case," continued Tracy. "We know it works--as one of the
nation's leading publishers of patent information on CD-ROM, we invented the NEATO because
we needed it ourselves!"
