Whether after a live event on stage or spontaneously at a trade fair.
This environmentally conscious alternative to plastic cases not only offers space for your music and individual design, but is also an ideal promotional gift. Give the CD to your fans to make them happy and to make your music more known. After the concert, you can also personally sign and sell the slipcases. A special experience that will be remembered for a long time!
1 CD = 3000 streams.
At a typical selling price of 12 euros for an album with 12 tracks, you would have 10.13 euros left after deducting the costs for CD pressing including printing the cardboard slipcase & shipping. To earn 10.13 euros with streams, you would need to have 3000 streams, which would mean each fan would have to listen to each of the 12 tracks at least 250 times. Or in other words, they would have to listen to your CD or some tracks from it for 150 hours = 6.25 days at a time.
As a rule, people tend to listen to a favorite song between 30-120 times over a period of several years. However, in reality, even a triple-A artist like David Guetta, with 70 million listeners, has only averaged 3.44 plays per track per listener for his 2012 album “Nothing but the Beat (Ultimate Edition)”. To stick with this example, for an album with 12 tracks, there would be just 41 plays, resulting in EUR 0.1394 after over 10 years. With the CD, you can quickly earn 70 to 250 times more than with streaming.
Sales value CD vs. streaming
sales proceeds of EUR 10.13 for the CD if the buyer only listens to all the songs once.
Both sides of the story.
It’s important to present music in a professional and appealing way. Many people not only love the music but also the attractive packaging, which makes them feel like they’re holding a real collector’s item in their hands.
Cover artwork
On the front of a CD you can see and design the album cover or the title of the recording. On the back you can place a track list, lyrics or further information about the recording.
Covercard (Optional)
Whether song lyrics, photos of the artists, credits, liner notes or tour dates. The booklet is a way for your fans to learn more about the album and artists while enjoying your music.
The best material
When it comes to choosing the material for a CD card wallet, there are many options, from smooth and glossy surfaces to rough and matte finishes.
The bestseller: Dispersion varnish gloss or matt
We offer both gloss and matte dispersion varnish. Dispersion varnish serves as a protective coating, shielding the paint from abrasion. The distinction between gloss and matt may not always be immediately apparent, as matte clearly exhibits fewer glossy effects than its glossy counterpart. Both variants deliver excellent color results on the 300g chromo board GC1. If you’re unsure, you can’t go wrong with either of these two options.
Dispersion varnish gloss
Even if it’s just a protective varnish, the glossy effect can help colors appear more vibrant and contrasting.
Dispersion varnish matte
Matte, non-reflective surface that has a more subtle and elegant effect. This style can help make the text on the CD packaging more readable because it is less reflective. However, since it is only a protective varnish, the effect is limited.
Recycling cardboard or inside-out?
If being environmentally friendly is important to you, recycled cardboard may be a better option. However, if you want an unusual texture, inside-out paper can be an interesting choice.
Recycling carton
Recycled cardboard, as the name suggests, is made from recycled paper.
It is an eco-friendly option as it helps reduce waste and conserve resources. Recycled cardboard often has a matt surface and is usually slightly thicker and more robust.
Inside Out
With Inside-Out material, you can print on the rough, uncoated side of the paper or cardboard instead of the smooth side to create a unique tactile effect.
This creates a special tactile feel and a different surface perception, which triggers an “aha” effect in the listener of your CD or DVD. To protect the packaging from moisture and abrasion, we finish inside-out packaging such as the Digifile or cardboard slipcase with matt dispersion varnish. This variant is suitable for high-contrast designs and economical full-surface printing. Choose inside-out printing to attract attention and be remembered with a special design.
Free samples
We will be happy to send you sample samples directly to your home. Of course at no cost to you. Since it can often be difficult to complete all of these steps alone, we are happy to offer our support and advise you on every step of the process. We would also be happy to make you an individual offer.
