Abstract:

A controller for managing storage, duplication and distribution of digital content on physical media. An interface receives order messages comprising order data from a network, where each order message specifies content and specifies order preferences. Other order preferences and specifications may be predefined and known to the system. A duplicator in communication with the interface operates to place the order-specified content onto the physical media in accordance with the specified order preferences. A labeler places a label and identifying indicia on the data disk, where the indicia creates an association between the order data and the disk. At least one post-duplication process is automated using the order data accessed through the identifying indicia.
