3K to 5K. yes...do the math. I went thru (3) Sony 948S burners, (1) Yamaha 4416S, and now have the Plex 12x4x32 SCSI and 12/10/32A (Iomega). Have always done my OTF via my 32x or 40x Plex readers. As least burning at 4X, I had time to go do other stuff while I was burning. That's why I hate the Plexs.....too fast.
Remember the Maxell cd-r rebates back 2+ years ago? $20 per box of 10. Sold at BB for $20 or $15 per box of 10. Limit 3 per addy, but.....at least two separate promos. I had 16 friends and family that rebated them, and gave them to me as a gift out of appreciation for the burns and system backups I made for them.
I made 450 for my cousin's band alone.
And, I trade alot of music.
