>>>Eric - there's nothing more to a DVD-Audio disc in terms of replication than there is to a DVD-Video title, DVD-A is just a DVD-Video disc with content in its AUDIO_TS directory.<<There are patent royalty costs and copy protection licensing costs that are significantly different from DVD-Video discs. Replicators also have to have CPPM software installed and tested at the line, and as a result need new LBR software as well. This is why many replicators cannot make DVD-A discs.
By far the largest cost in making a DVD-A title is the cost of the surround sound mix.
