Well kept pressed CDs /DVDs should last for a VERY long time and are friendlier to environment to the blanks (which & cases are same shipping CO2/resource)
Local burnt copies less life
Delay to download over Internet
Delay to burn Disc & test it
Some stores can't get Internent or fast enough
Printing cover fades faster than preprinted.
Buring costs x10 more than pressing
One off Printing costs x100 more than bulk.
Sorry, I'm not interested in standing for 10mins to get a poor quality store burnt copy.
I'd rather wait 2 days for the post. I can be doing something else.
If I'm in Zavvi/HMV etc I might impulse buy a bargain, if the music is not too loud to put off browsing and there is no big queue at checkout.
