Worth producing the DVDs?

Hi All,

Just taking a quick break from rendering the nearly-finished rough cut of Slave Auction (I need to do some work on the sound and shoot a few quick pickup shots of bidders at the auction, it is coming along nicely).

Anyway, I noticed that over 90% of the people who have bought Amelia's Sunday Spanking and Acquiesce have chosen the MP4 version over the DVD download. So... do you think it is worth us producing the films as DVD downloads? Or should we just produce the MP4 version?

Cheers, Hywel

  1. I guess the DVD buyers could answer best. Would they still buy the MP4 version, if there was no DVD download? By the way now I'm a little curious. How much effort is it to produce the DVD version?

  2. It doesn't take long, but it takes up a lot of space on the server as the DVD files are bigger (despite being lower resolution- MPEG2 as used on DVDs is an older, less efficient codec than the H.264 used for the MP4 versions)

    Cheers, Hywel
